Microbial Communities and Environmental Factors Interact to Regulate Soil Respiration Under Nitrogen Addition Conditions in Alpine Meadows in Northwest China

Alpine meadow ecosystems are highly sensitive to global change, yet the response mechanisms of soil respiration (Rs) to nitrogen deposition remain unclear. This research employed a gradient nitrogen addition experiment (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 g·m⁻²·a⁻¹) in an...
