The correlations between Q 10 and influencing factors. SWC, sediment water content; SOC, soil organic carbon; TN, total nitrogen; POC, particulate organic carbon; MAOC, mineral-associated organic carbon; Bact, bacterial PLFAs; Act, actinomycetes PLFAs; F/B, the ratio of fungal PLFAs to bacterial PLFAs; S/V, the ratio of vanillyls to syringyls in ligninphenol; C/V, the ratio of vanillyls to cinnamyls in ligninphenol; The ratio of acid to aldehyde forms of vanillyls and syringyls [(Ad/Al)v and (Ad/Al)s]. Red and blue indicate positive and negative relationships, respectively. The solid lines and grey area represent the linear regressions and the 95% confidence interval, respectively. Circles and triangles denote BLH-A and BLH-B, respectively. R 2 , the proportion of variance explained. *, ** and *** indicate significant correlation between Q 10 and the corresponding variable at p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001, respectively.
