| Title: | Main Title: Soil respiration and its temperature sensitivity (Q10): Rapid acquisition using mid-infrared spectroscopy |
| Description: | Abstract: Spatial patterns of soil respiration (SR) and its sensitivity to temperature (Q10) are one of the key uncertainties in climate change research but since their assessment is very time-consuming, large data sets can still not be provided. Here, we investigated the potential of mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIRS) to predict SR and Q10 values for 124 soil samples of diverse land use types taken from a 2868 km2 catchment (Rur catchment, Germany/Belgium/Netherlands). Soil respiration at standardized temperature (25 °C) and soil moisture (45% of maximum water holding capacity, WHC) was successfully predicted by MIRS coupled with partial least square regression (PLSR, R2= 0.83). Also the Q10 value was predictable by MIRS-PLSR for a grassland submodel (R2= 0.75) and a cropland submodel (R2= 0.72) but not for forested sites (R2= 0.03). In order to provide soil respiration estimates for arbitrary conditions of temperature and soil moisture, more flexible models are required that can handle nonlinear and interacting relations. Therefore, we applied a Random Forest model, which includes the MIRS spectra, temperature, soil moisture, and land use as predictor variables. We could show that SR can be simultaneously predicted for any temperature (5–25 °C) and soil moisture level (30–75% of WHC), indicated by a high R2 of 0.73. We conclude that the combination of MIRS with sophisticated statistical prediction tools allows for a novel, rapid acquisition of SR and Q10 values across landscapes and thus to fill an important data gap in the validation of large scale carbon modeling. |
