Contrasting Rhizospheric and Heterotrophic Components of Soil Respiration during Growing and Non-Growing Seasons in a Temperate Deciduous Forest
The contributions of heterotrophic respiration (RH) to total soil respiration (RS) for the non-growing season, growing season, and annual period are 84.8%, 60.7%, and 63.3%, respectively.Few studies have partitioned RS into its rhizospheric (RR) and heterotrophic components throughout the year in no...
