Net uptake of atmospheric methane by methanotrophic bacteria in forest soils is generally less than 20 kg CH4 ha−1 per year and therefore has almost no impact on the carbon budget of forest ecosystems. However, terrestrial soils are the most important
Mean annual temperature dominates the spatial differences in resistance among different grasslands. When drought and heatwave occur simultaneously, there is an additive effect on resistance and causes lower resistance to compound dry-hot events compared to individual drought and heatwave events. Our ...

variation in temperature were rather small compared to that of soil moisture. Similar results have been reported in grasslands4, shrubland sites27 and forests28.
