Experimental manipulation succeeded in establishing three treatments which, in comparison with the monthly ambient temperature, displayed an increase in mean monthly temperature by 2.1, 4.9 and 7.4 oC respectively. Also the upper limit temperature values (Tmax), but not the low limit counterparts (Tmin), differed significantly among the three treatments. Tmax changes seemed to affect directly only the microbial biomass, while it exerted an indirect effect on the majority of the other soil variables. With increased Tmax the values of the estimated soil microbial variables (microbial biomass and activity) increased, while other soil chemical variables, such as the inorganic forms of N, were found reducing. Organic N was the only variable remaining independent from changing Tmax at any treatment. The results of this paper indicate that the level of Tmax increase could be crucial for the structure of the microbial community. A Tmax increase up to 7 oC induced by climate change could favour the dominance of the soil bacterial populations, while larger increases could be in favour of the fungal populations.</p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>385</first_page><last_page>394</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">787</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000787</doi><timestamp>1714099321</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/787</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
