Interactions among temperature, moisture, and oxygen concentrations in controlling decomposition rates in a boreal forest soil

Determining environmental controls on soil organic matter decomposition is of importance for developing models that predict the effects of environmental change on global soil carbon stocks. There is uncertainty about the environmental controls on decomposition rates at temperature and moisture extre...
