Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

Background Soil organic matter (SOM) supports multiple soil ecosystem functions,
underpinned by processes such as C sequestration, N mineralization, aggregation …

The organic matter of living plants is the precursor material of the organic matter stored in
terrestrial soil ecosystems. Although a great deal of knowledge exists on the carbon turnover …

Increasing the potential of soil to store carbon (C) is an acknowledged and emphasized
strategy for capturing atmospheric CO2. Well-recognized approaches for soil C accretion …

Most of our terrestrial carbon (C) storage occurs in soils as organic C derived from living
organisms. Therefore, the fate of soil organic C (SOC) in response to changes in climate …

There is currently an intense debate about the potential for additional organic carbon
storage in soil, the strategies by which it may be accomplished and what the actual benefits …

Nowadays, climate change is recognized as one of the biggest problems the world is facing,
posing a potential threat to the environment and almost all aspects of human life. Since the …

Higher tree species richness generally increases the storage of soil organic carbon (SOC).
However, less attention is paid to the influence of varied tree species composition on SOC …

Plant roots and associated mycorrhizae exert a large influence on soil carbon (C) cycling.
Yet, little was known whether and how roots and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) extraradical mycelia …

We use a unique set of terrestrial experiments to demonstrate how soil management
practises result in emergence of distinct associations between physical structure and …
