Climate change is intensifying drought globally, but whether severe drought weakens or strengthens ecosystem carbon use efficiency (CUE) remains unresolved. Because drought suppresses both carbon assimilation and respiratory carbon loss, CUE depends on the relative sensitivities of these two processes. Recent evidence...

Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) has been proposed as a critical determinant of soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics, yet its relative importance compared with plant carbon inputs, edaphic conditions, microbial attributes, and physicochemical protection remains poorly understood. Here, we conducted large-scale soil...

Ecosystem respiration (ER) is the largest source of biogenic CO2 to the atmosphere, and its temperature sensitivity (Q10) before reaching maximum values is crucial for understanding land–climate feedback. However, despite decades of studies showing that Q10 varies considerably across space, time, and biomes, the mechan...
