Temporal variation in soil respiration and its sensitivity to temperature along a hydrological gradient in an alpine wetland of the Tibetan Plateau
Wetlands are predicted to experience lowered water tables due to permafrost degradation in the Tibetan Plateau. These changes may affect carbon cycle processes such as soil respiration (R-s). However, the magnitude, patterns and controls of R-s remain poorly understood in alpine wetlands with their...

Wetlands are predicted to experience lowered water tables due to permafrost degradation in the Tibetan Plateau. These changes may affect carbon cycle processes such as soil respiration (R-s). However, the magnitude, patterns and controls of R-s remain poorly understood in alpine wetlands with their distinct hydrological regimes. Here, we conducted a field study on R-s from 2012 to 2014 in three alpine ecosystems on the Tibetan Plateau-fen, wet meadow and meadow-with soil water decreases along hydrological gradients. From 2012 to 2014, the annual R-s was 128.9-193.3 g C m(-2)yr(-1), 281.5-342.9 g C m(-2)yr(-1), and 663.4-709.1 g C m(-2)yr(-1) for the fen, wet meadow, and meadow, respectively. An abrupt increase in CO2 emissions was caused by the spring thawing of the frozen soil in the fen and wet meadow, contributing 20.4-37.6% and 13.2-17.4%, respectively, to the annual R-s. The diurnal variation in the R-s was site specific among the three ecosystems, with one peak at 1300 h in the fen and meadow and two peaks at 1300 h and 1900 h in the wet meadow.
