An inverse analysis reveals limitations of the soil-CO<sub>2</sub> profile method to calculate CO<sub>2</sub> production and efflux for well-structured soils

Soil respiration is the second largest flux in the global carbon cycle, yet the underlying below-ground process, carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) production, is not well understood because it can not be measured in the field. CO<sub>2</sub> production has frequently been calcu...
