•Regional-scale modelling of ecosystem (Reco) and autotrophic respiration (Ra).•Temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO) levels mostly influence Reco and Ra.•Water-filled pore space has lowest influence on Reco, Ra and soil respiration (Rs).•Soil and air temperature and DO contributes >65% for Reco,...
