| Zusammenfassung |
| Soil respiration rates were measured along different parts of a slope in (a) an
evergreen forest with common brown forest soil and (b) a deciduous forest
with immature soil. The effects of soil temperature, soil moisture and soil
properties were estimated individually, and the magnitudes of these effects
in the deciduous and evergreen forests were compared. In the evergreen
forest with common brown forest soil, soil properties had the greatest
effect on soil respiration rates, followed by soil moisture and soil
temperature. These results may be explained by the fact that different soil
properties matured within different environments. It can be argued that the
low soil respiration rates in the low parts of the slope in the evergreen
forest resulted from soil properties and not from wet soil conditions. In
the deciduous forest, soil respiration rates were more strongly affected by
soil moisture and soil temperature than by soil properties. These effects
were likely due to the immaturity of the forest soil. |
