in soils in conjunction with new high temporal resolution soil respiration data sets offer …

On-going climate change is increasing the risk of drought stress across large areas
worldwide. Such drought events decrease ecosystem productivity and have been …

Development of optical isotope techniques over the last several years has provided
scientists a set of tools for tracing the transport and cycling of CO2 and water vapor between …

Examining responses of soil respiration to climate change is crucial for understanding future
terrestrial carbon (C) cycling. However, the interaction between climate warming and …

Soil gas and CO2 flux measurements were conducted above and in the vicinity of the
Weyburn oil field during the period 2001–2005 and in 2011 to determine baseline values …

Purpose Climate change is likely to increase both intensity and frequency of drought stress.
The responses of soil respiration (R s) and its components (root respiration, R r; mycorrhizal …

The chemical composition and degradability of soil organic matter (SOM) are among the
most important factors influencing the feedback between soil CO 2 emissions and climate …

Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) plays an important role in the global carbon
cycle because the CO2 emitted from soil respiration is an important source of atmospheric …

Soil respiration is a vital process in all terrestrial ecosystems, through which the soil releases
carbon dioxide (CO 2) into the atmosphere at an estimated annual rate of 68–101 Pg …

Summer droughts projected to increase in central Europe due to climate changes strongly
influence the carbon cycle of ecosystems. Persistent respiration activities during drought …
