Adequate representation of the soil organic carbon (SOC) cycle at the macroscale (km to
global) is important in order to understand and predict the implications of SOC dynamics for …

Soil microbial traits and functions play a central role in soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics.
However, at the macroscale (regional to global) it is still unresolved whether (i) specific …

Even small changes in microbial decomposition rates of soil organic carbon (SOC) at the
regional scale have the potential to modify land-atmospheric feedbacks at the global scale …

Soils represent the largest terrestrial reservoir of organic carbon, and the balance between
soil organic carbon (SOC) formation and loss will drive powerful carbon‐climate feedbacks …

Given the importance of soils in the global carbon (C) cycle, it is important to understand not
only how much C soils store, but also how long this C persists. Climate change is rapidly …

Organic matter accumulation in soil is understood as the result of the dynamics between
mineral‐associated (more decomposed, microbial derived) organic matter and free …

One of the largest uncertainties in the terrestrial carbon cycle is the timing and magnitude of
soil organic carbon (SOC) response to climate and vegetation change. This uncertainty …

Organic matter accumulation in soil is understood as the result of the dynamics between
mineral-associated (often more decomposed, microbial derived) organic matter and free …

The storage and cycling of soil organic carbon (SOC) are governed by multiple co-varying
factors, including climate, plant productivity, edaphic properties, and disturbance history. Yet …

The vertical distribution of microbial biomass carbon (MBC) is important for terrestrial soil C
cycling. However, we still do not understand what controls the vertical distribution of MBC …
