Carbon Use Efficiency and Its Temperature Sensitivity Covary in Soil Bacteria
Soil microbes respond to environmental change by altering how they allocate carbon to growth versus respiration—or carbon use efficiency (CUE). Ecosystem and Earth System models, used to project how global soil C stocks will continue to respond to the climate crisis, often assume that microbes respo...
