Vegetation types alter soil respiration and its temperature sensitivity at the field scale in an estuary wetland.

Vegetation types alter soil respiration and its temperature sensitivity at the field scale in an estuary wetland.

Vegetation type plays an important role in regulating the temporal and spatial variation of soil respiration. Therefore, vegetation patchiness may cause high uncertainties in the estimates of soil respiration for scaling field measurements to ecosystem level. Few studies provide insights regarding t...
