Soil respiration along an altitudinal gradient in a subalpine secondary forest in China

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015
The subalpine forest ecosystems in the Miyaluo Forest District in western Sichuan (China) could be very sensitive to global climate change, with important consequences for the regional carbon (C) balance.

Soil Respiration in Drying of an Organic Soil

open access: yesOpen Journal of Soil Science, 2015
Drying of soil was linearly related to time, soil volume decreased and ratio of air within the soils increased. Respiration was related with decreasing humidity, storage of CO2 in soil water results in RQ < 0.5 in the larger soil items at least for a while. Rate of drying decreased in the second part of the process.

Identifying key factors controlling potential soil respiration in agricultural fields

open access: yesAgricultural & Environmental Letters, 2023
Soil respiration is one of the main soil health indicators and is influenced by several factors in agricultural fields. Identifying key factors that control soil respiration is desirable for informed soil management decisions and for promoting and ...

Diel hysteresis between soil respiration and soil temperature in a biological soil crust covered desert ecosystem.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Soil respiration induced by biological soil crusts (BSCs) is an important process in the carbon (C) cycle in arid and semi-arid ecosystems, where vascular plants are restricted by the harsh environment, particularly the limited soil moisture.

Impact of environmental factors and biological soil crust types on soil respiration in a desert ecosystem.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The responses of soil respiration to environmental conditions have been studied extensively in various ecosystems. However, little is known about the impacts of temperature and moisture on soils respiration under biological soil crusts.

Effects of stand density on soil respiration and labile organic carbon in different aged Larix principis-rupprechtii plantations

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2021
Background The carbon pools of forest soils play a vital role in global carbon sequestration and emissions. Forest management can regulate the sequestration and output of forest soil carbon pools to a certain extent; however, the kinetics of the effects ...

Soil respiration under different land uses in Eastern China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Land-use change has a crucial influence on soil respiration, which further affects soil nutrient availability and carbon stock. We monitored soil respiration rates under different land-use types (tea gardens with three production levels, adjacent ...

Grassland Management Influences the Response of Soil Respiration to Drought

open access: yesAgronomy, 2019
Increasing soil carbon stocks in agricultural grasslands has a strong potential to mitigate climate change. However, large uncertainties around the drivers of soil respiration hinder our ability to identify management practices that enhance soil carbon ...
