摘要:The rate of CO2 diffusion from soils to the
atmosphere (soil CO2 efflux, soil respiration; Rsoil)
reflects the integrated activity of roots and microbes
and is among the largest fluxes of the terrestrial global
C cycle. Most experiments have demonstrated that
Rsoil increases by 20–35% following the exposure of
an ecosystem to an atmosphere enriched in CO2 (i.e.,
eCO2), but such experiments have largely been
performed in young and N-limited ecosystems. Here,
we exposed a mature and phosphorus-limited eucalypt
woodland to eCO2 and measured Rsoil across three full
years with a combination of manual surveys and
automated measurements. We also implemented an
empirical model describing the dependence of Rsoil on
volumetric soil water content (h) and soil temperature
(Tsoil) to produce annual Rsoil flux estimates. Rsoil
varied strongly with Tsoil, h, and precipitation in
complex and interacting ways. The realized long-term
(weeks to years) temperature dependence (Q10) of Rsoil
increased from * 1.6 at low h up to * 3 at high h.
Additionally, Rsoil responded strongly and rapidly to
precipitation events in a manner that depended on the
conditions of h and Tsoil at the beginning of the rain
event; Rsoil increased by up to 300% within 30 min
when rain fell on dry soil that had not experience rain
in the preceding week, but Rsoil was rapidly reduced by
up to 70% when rain fell on wet soil, leading to
flooding. Repeated measures analysis of Rsoil observations over 3 years indicated no significant change in
response to CO2 enrichment (P = 0.7), and elevated
CO2 did not alter the dependence of Rsoil on Tsoil or h.
However, eCO2 increased Rsoil observations by *
10% under some constrained and moderate environmental conditions. Annual Rsoil flux sums estimated
with an empirical model were * 7% higher in eCO2
plots than in aCO2 plots, but this difference was not
statistically significant. The lack of a large eCO2 effect
on Rsoil is consistent with recent evidence that
aboveground net primary production was not stimulated by eCO2 in this ecosystem. The C budget of this
mature woodland may be less affected by eCO2 than
