What, exactly, inhibits decomposition at low temperature?

Lead Institution
University of Toledo
Principal Investigator
Michael Weintraub
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Arctic soils contain large carbon (C) stores, and the balance of C fluxes is likely to shift because Arctic temperatures are rising at twice the global rate. However, predicting soil responses is…

Why is Arctic tundra soil respiration carbon limited at low temperatures?

Lead Institution
University of Toledo
Principal Investigator
Michael Weintraub
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Soil microbial communities are active during much of the long Arctic winter, despite low temperatures, so overwinter microbial activity is important to global carbon (C) budgets. C-rich Arctic soils…
