Dynamics of changes in (a and b) litterfall biomass carbon in control plots, (c and d) soil respiration in response to litter addition, (e and f) litter‐derived soil respiration and, (g and h) priming effect due to litterfall from December 2013 and November 2016 for the Wytham Woods temperate forest, in England (on the left), and from January 2015 and November 2016 for the Gigante tropical forests, in Panama (on the right); soil respiration at Gigante was only measured every 2 months in the final year of the study
