Moso bamboo expansion impacts on root respiration of Japanese cedar forest and secondary broad-leaved forest in a socio-ecological production landscape

Soil respiration and its root-derived component are important pathways for carbon release from forest ecosystems, but they remain poorly understood in expanding bamboo forests. We quantified root respiration and its drivers in an abandoned Moso bamboo forest (BF), a Japanese ceda...
