Forests play a critical role as terrestrial carbon sinks in mitigating climate change. However, accurate quantification of soil respiration ( R s )—the primary CO 2 efflux from forests—remains challenging due to existing studies' overreliance on annual‐scale estimates, which obscure fine‐scale spatiotemporal dynamics and key drivers of R s . Here, we developed a 500 m resolution monthly R s dataset for China's forests (2000–20...

Aim Soil fauna has a wide range of ecosystem functions. Anthropogenic atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition affects the structure and function of soil fauna by changing the microenvironment and resources. Given that soil faunal responses can vary considerably among taxonomic groups, N deposition rate, and ecosystems, however, there is little consensus. We aimed to evaluate the effects of N deposition on different soil faunal tax...
