Short summary

This study investigated soil respiration and the main factors involved in a semi-arid environment (olive grove). For this purpose, 1 year's worth of automatic multi-chamber measurements was used, accompanied by ecosystem respiration data obtained using the eddy covariance technique. The soil respiration annual balance, Q₁₀ parameter, rain pulses, and spatial and temporal variability of soil respiration are presented in this paper.
