Soil microbes and their response to experimental warming over time: a meta-analysis of field studies
Numerous field studies have found changes in soil respiration and microbial abundance
under experimental warming. Yet, it is uncertain whether the magnitude of these responses …

Nitrogen availability mediates soil carbon cycling response to climate warming: A meta‐analysis
Global climate warming may induce a positive feedback through increasing soil carbon (C)
release to the atmosphere. Although warming can affect both C input to and output from soil …

Soil respiration and the global carbon cycle
WH Schlesinger, JA Andrews - Biogeochemistry, 2000 - Springer
Soil respiration is the primary path by which CO 2 fixed by land plants returns to the
atmosphere. Estimated at approximately 75× 10 15 gC/yr, this large natural flux is likely to …

A meta-analysis of the response of soil respiration, net nitrogen mineralization, and aboveground plant growth to experimental ecosystem warming
Climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions is predicted to raise the mean global
temperature by 1.0–3.5° C in the next 50–100 years. The direct and indirect effects of this …

Will changes in soil organic carbon act as a positive or negative feedback on global warming?
MUF Kirschbaum - Biogeochemistry, 2000 - Springer
The world's soils contain about 1500 Gt of organic carbon to a depth of 1m and a further 900
Gt from 1--2m. A change of total soil organic carbon by just 10% would thus be equivalent to …
