Question 7 - soil respiration
Fragment of a discussion from Course talk:APBI403
Sarah, 1) You are on the right track Plot ln Rs versus the exponential(Ts-10)/10 Fit a straight line through the data points --> y = mx + b where y = ln Rs; m is the slope of the line, x = (Ts-10)/10 and b = intercept
The slope gives you Q10 The intercept gives you ln Rs at Ts=10 (or where the exponential = 0)
