Warming but Not Nitrogen Addition Alters the Linear Relationship Between Microbial Respiration and Biomass
Soil contains a large amount of organic matter, which constitutes the largest terrestrial carbon pool. Heterotrophic or microbial respiration (Rh) that results from microbial decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC) constitutes a substantial proportion of soil C efflux. Whether soil microbial biom...
