The significant decrease in soil #CO2Emissions with increasing #SoilDepth in old-growth #SubtropicalForests is primarily due to diminished microbial activity and reduced availability of substrates in deeper layers.

Deyun Chen et al. measured soil #CO2Emissions at six different depths in a primary forest, and assessed potential influencing factors, including soil physical and chemical properties, #MicrobialDiversity and community structure and function.

Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) were significantly positively correlated, and both declined with increasing nitrogen addition rates.
