摘要： Biochar impacts on soil respiration (Rs) remain uncertain, particularly in dryland regions where significant CO2 emissions result from rewetting. To examine these impacts, we conducted a three-year field experiment during the millet growing season to investigate the response patterns of Rs to biochar-induced changes in vertical soil temperature (Ts) and volumetric water content (VWC). Before Rs observation, the experimental site underwent three years of biochar amelioration (no planting) with five application rates of 1 %, 2.5 %, 4 %, 5.5 % and 7 % (BC1, BC2.5, BC4, BC5.5 and BC7, applied to the 0-20 cm soil layer). Rs was monitored within the 0-20 cm soil layer while Ts and VWC were measured simultaneously at soil depths of 5, 10 and 20 cm (Ts5, Ts10, Ts20, VWC5, VWC10 and VWC20). Moisture status within the Rs measurement range was partitioned by 0.093 m(3) m(-3) (the optimal VWC for Rs) for non-biochar amended soil (control). Overall, compared with the control, BC4, BC5.5 and BC7 significantly increased Rs (33.3-63.5 %) and experienced water stress earlier at a soil depth of 5 cm. In addition, high moisture levels caused significant differences in Rs among treatments. In terms of the relationship between Rs and Ts, the Gaussian-Ts model performed better than exponential-Ts in control only at a soil depth of 5 cm under low moisture conditions. For biochar treatments, Rs did not continue to rise with increasing Ts for BC1 and BC2.5 treatments under low moisture conditions and for BC5.5 and BC7 treatments under high moisture conditions across soil depths. With biochar application rate, Rs was dominantly shaped by VWC20 and Ts20 under low moisture conditions, while it was significantly influenced by Ts under high moisture conditions. These findings elucidate how Rs responds to biochar-induced changes in vertical Ts and VWC across moisture levels, providing valuable insights for comprehensively evaluating the environmental effects of biochar-amended soil in dryland areas.
