Deskripsi
The impacts of top down (precipitation) and bottom-up (groundwater rise) wetting processes on carbon sequestration are poorly understood. Here, the authors use incubation experiments to show that drought legacy and pore-scale wetting patterns are important factors controlling short-term carbon dynamics.
