abstract = {In this study eight temperate grassland sites were
monitored for soil CO2 efflux (Rs) and the spatial covariate
soilwater content (SWC) and soil temperature (Ts) at fine
scale in over 77 measurement campaigns. The goals of
thismultisite study were to explore the correlations between
environmental gradients and spatial patterns of Rs, SWCand
Ts, which are not site-specific and to quantify the
relevance of biotic and abiotic controls over spatial
patternsalong increasing vegetation structural complexity.
These patterns in water-limited ecosystems in
East-CentralEurope are likely to be influenced by summer
droughts caused by the changing climate.A consistent
experimental setupwas applied at the study sites including
75 sampling locations along 15m circulartransects. Spatial
data processing was mainly based on variography. Two proxy
variables were introduced torelate the site characteristics
in terms of soils, water status and vegetation. Normalised
SWC (SWCn) reconciledsite-specific soil water regimes while
normalised day of year integrated temperature and vegetation
phenology.A principal component analysis revealed that the
progressing closure of vegetation in combination with large
Rsand SWCn values, as well as low Ts and Rs variability
support the detectability of spatial patterns found in both
theabiotic and biotic variables. Our results showed that
apart from SWC the pattern of soil temperature also had
aneffect on spatial structures.We detected that when the
spatially structured variability of Ts was low, a strong
negativecorrelation existed between SWCn and the spatial
autocorrelation length of Rs with r = 0.66 (p b
0.001).However, for high spatially structured variability of
Ts, occurring presumably at low Ts in spring and autumn,the
correlation did not exist and itwas difficult to quantify
the spatial autocorrelation of Rs. Our results are
indicativeof a potential shift from homogeneity and
dominance of biotic processes to an increased heterogeneity
andabiotic regulation in drought prone ecosystems under
conditions of decreasing soil moisture.},
