Rainfall intensification increases the contribution of rewetting pulses to soil heterotrophic respiration
<p>Soil drying and wetting cycles promote carbon (C) release through large heterotrophic respiration pulses at rewetting, known as the “Birch” effect. Empirical evidence shows that drier conditions before rewetting and larger changes in soil moisture at rewetting cause larger respiration pulse...
