Short summary
This simulation study found that dry legacy imposed positive impacts on net ecosystem production (NEP) whereas wet legacy had negative impacts on NEP, indicating that dry legacy can foster more C sequestration and wet legacy more C release. The carryover of soil nitrogen was mainly responsible for the gross ecosystem production (GEP) responses, while the carryovers of plant biomass, litter and soil organic matter were mainly responsible for the ecosystem respiration (Re) responses.
