Abstract: Soil respiration represents a source of CO2 that greatly exceeds that of fossil fuel use and requires close monitoring in order to account for its contribution to net carbon exchange. While technological innovations continue to improve the quality of respiration monitoring, considerably less effort has been invested in the conceptual framework for monitoring networks. A network architecture and planning process is needed that allows us to anticipate the evolution of significant changes in this carbon pool, to ensure that expertise and resources are available at the appropriate times.
