| Abstract | By using packed soil-core incubation experiments, we have studied stimulating effects of addition of external carbon (C) (glucose, 6.4 g C m$^{−2}$) on heterotrophic respiration and microbial biomass C of a mature broadleaf and Korean pine mixed forest (BKPF) and an adjacent white birch forest (WBF) soil under different wetting intensities (55% and 80% WFPS, water-filled pore space) and nitrogen (N) supply (NH$_{4}$Cl and KNO$_{3}$, 4.5 g N m$^{−2}$) conditions. The results showed that for the control, the cumulative carbon dioxide (CO$_{2}$) flux from WBF soil during the 15-day incubation ranged from 5.44 to 5.82 g CO$_{2}$-C m$^{−2}$, which was significantly larger than that from BKPF soil (2.86 to 3.36 g CO$_{2}$-C m$^{−2}$). With increasing wetting intensity, the cumulative CO$_{2}$ flux from the control was decreased for the WBF soil, whereas an increase in the CO$_{2}$ flux was observed in the BKPF soil (P < 0.05). The addition of NH$_{4}$Cl or KNO$_{3}$ alone significantly reduced the cumulative CO$_{2}$ fluxes by 9.2%–21.6 % from the two soils, especially from WBF soil at low wetting intensity. The addition of glucose alone significantly increased soil heterotrophic respiration, microbial biomass C (MBC), and microbial metabolic quotient. The glucose-induced cumulative CO$_{2}$ fluxes and soil MBC during the incubation ranged from 8.7 to 11.7 g CO$_{2}$-C m$^{−2}$ and from 7.4 to 23.9 g C m$^{−2}$, which are larger than the dose of added C. Hence, the addition of external carbon can increase the decomposition of soil native organic C. The glucose-induced average and maximum rates of CO$_{2}$ fluxes during the incubation were significantly influenced by wetting intensity (WI) and vegetation type (VT), and by WI×VT, NH$_{4}$Cl×VT and WI×VT×NH$_{4}$Cl (P<0.05). The addition of NH$_{4}$Cl, instead of KNO$_{3}$, significantly decreased the glucose-induced MBC of WBF soil (P<0.05), whereas adding NH$_{4}$Cl and KNO$_{3}$ both significantly increased the glucose-induced MBC of BKPF soil at high moisture (P<0.05). According to the differences in soil labile C pools, MBC and CO$_{2}$ fluxes in the presence and absence of glucose, it can be concluded that the stimulating effects of glucose on soil heterotrophic respiration and MBC under temperate forests were dependent on vegetation type, soil moisture, and amount and type of the N added. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
