Rapid loss of complex polymers and pyrogenic carbon in subsoils under whole-soil warming
Subsoils contain more than half of soil organic carbon (SOC) and are expected to experience rapid warming in the coming decades. Yet our...

Twenty years of litter manipulation reveals that above-ground litter quantity and quality controls soil organic matter molecular composition
Global environmental change is altering the quality and quantity of plant inputs into soil. However, it is unclear how these long-term changes may...

Size matters: biochemical mineralization and microbial incorporation of dicarboxylic acids in soil
The transformation and turnover time of medium- to long-chain dicarboxylic acids (DCA) in soil is regulated by microbial uptake and mineralization....

Biogeochemical evolution of soil organic matter composition after a decade of warming and nitrogen addition
Forest soils are an important carbon (C) sink and critical component of the global C cycle. Warmer temperatures and increased atmospheric nitrogen...

Thermal Stability of Soil Organic Matter in Postagrogenic Luvic Phaeozems
AbstractThe efficiency of carbon sequestration in abandoned soils depends on the stability of accumulated organic matter. The resistance of soil...

Long-term nitrogen addition suppresses microbial degradation, enhances soil carbon storage, and alters the molecular composition of soil organic matter
Forest soil organic carbon (SOC) is one of the largest reservoirs of terrestrial carbon (C) and is a major component of the global C cycle. Yet there...

Molecular-level changes in soil organic matter composition after 10 years of litter, root and nitrogen manipulation in a temperate forest
With climate change, forests are expected to receive increased inputs of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) but it is unclear how this will modify forest C...

Microbial and plant-derived compounds both contribute to persistent soil organic carbon in temperate soils
Our study tests the emerging paradigm that biochemical recalcitrance does not affect substantially long-term (50 years) SOC persistence. We analyzed...
