Article Synopsis
- Global climate change has altered precipitation patterns, influencing soil respiration (SR), which is a key process in the carbon cycle and impacts atmospheric CO2 levels.
- A study in desert grasslands tested different precipitation levels (-40%, -20%, natural, +20%, +40%) to examine how these changes affected SR and its relationship with factors like soil moisture and temperature.
- Results indicated that SR increased with additional precipitation and was significantly influenced by year-to-year changes, showing stronger negative impacts from decreased precipitation than positive effects from increased precipitation.
