Microscale heterogeneity explains experimental variability and non-linearity in soil organic matter mineralisation.
Soil respiration represents the second largest CO2 flux from terrestrial ecosystems to the atmosphere, and a small rise could significantly contribute to further increase in atmospheric CO2. Unfortunately, the extent of this effect cannot be quantified reliably, and the outcomes of experiments desig...
