Abstract
<p>Daily precipitation (bars) and daily mean air temperature (line) in 2010 and 2011 (A). Data are from the eddy tower adjacent (approximately 100 m) to the experimental site. Seasonal variations of soil temperature (B) and water content (C) at topsoil layer (0–10 cm) in response to carbon addition (+60%) and water addition (+30%) in the temperate steppe of northeastern China. Insets represent the two seasonal mean values of soil temperature (ST) and water content (SWC). Vertical bars indicate standard errors of means (n = 6). Difference lowercase letters indicate statistically significant differences (<i>P</i><0.05). A = ambient condition (control), C = carbon addition, W = water addition, CW = combined carbon and water additions.</p
