  • Descrição: Aims: The partitioning of the total soil CO sub(2) efflux into its two main components: respiration from roots (and root-associated organisms) and microbial respiration (by means of soil organic matter (SOM) and litter decomposition), is a major need in soil carbon dynamics studies in order to understand if a soil is a net sink or source of carbon. Methods: The heterotrophic component of the CO sub(2) efflux was estimated for 11 forest sites as the ratio between the carbon stocks of different SOM pools and previously published ( Delta super(14)C derived) turnover times. The autotrophic component, including root and root-associated respiration, was calculated by subtracting the heterotrophic component from total soil chamber measured CO sub(2) efflux. Results: Results suggested that, on average, 50.4 % of total soil CO sub(2) efflux was derived from the respiration of the living roots, 42.4 % from decomposition of the litter layers and less than 10 % from decomposition of belowground SOM. Conclusions: The Delta super(14)C method proved to be an efficient tool by which to partition soil CO sub(2) efflux and quantify the contribution of the different components of soil respiration. However the average calculated heterotrophic respiration was statistically lower compared with two previous studies dealing with soil CO sub(2) efflux partitioning (one performed in the same study area; the other a meta-analysis of soil respiration partitioning). These differences were probably due to the heterogeneity of the SOM fraction and to a sub-optimal choice of the litter sampling period.
