Abstract

The influence of long-term exposure of model plantations at elevated atmospheric CO2 (550 ppm) on soil respiration under natural conditions has been studied using an automated Free-Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) system at the Hokkaido University, Japan. In the course of the experiment, an attempt has been made to simulate the effect of forthcoming climate change on the process of CO2 emission from different soil types.
