Impact of soil collar insertion depth on microbial respiration measurements from tropical peat under an oil palm plantation

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from peat are commonly measured using closed chambers, using a collar insertion depth of 5–20 cm. However, measured emission values at these depths are likely to be a mixture of root (autotrophic) and microbial (heterotrophic) respiration. Using a deeper collar inserti...
