Labile carbon input suppresses Q10 of soil organic carbon decomposition by dynamically lowering microbial activation energy mediated by a shift in microbial metabolic strategy

Understanding the temperature sensitivity (Q 10 ) of soil organic carbon (SOC) decomposition, as constrained by the activation energy (E a ) of microbial metabolism, is critical for predicting climate-carbon feedbacks. This study examined how exogenous glucose influences Q 10 in...
