Temperature Sensitivity and Basal Rate of Soil Respiration and Their Determinants in Temperate Forests of North China
The basal respiration rate at 10°C (R10) and the temperature sensitivity of soil respiration (Q10) are two premier parameters in predicting the instantaneous rate of soil respiration at a given temperature. However, the mechanisms underlying the spatial variations in R10 and Q10 are not quite clear....
