Assessment of soil carbon dioxide efflux from contrasting land uses in a semi-arid savannah ecosystem, northeastern Ghana (West Africa)
Soil respiration (SR) emits a vast amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and contributes largely to the global greenhouse gas budget. The study assessed the dynamics of SR rates in the Vea catchment in northeastern Ghana, a sparsely gauged semi-arid savannah ecosystem characterized by distinct...
