Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration in Dryland Soils to Alleviate Impacts of Climate Change
Dryland region covers 47.2% of the global area. In India, it covers 68% of the total cultivated area and supports 44% of the world’s food production... -
Effects of Organic Agriculture on the Soil Carbon Stock
The soil carbon (C) stock is comprised of the soil inorganic carbon (SIC) and the soil organic carbon (SOC) stock. A site-specific steady state... -
Crop-Soil-Environment Benefits of Equivalent Carbon Input from Organic Amendments in Rice Production Ecosystems
Sustainable production of rice is essential in supplying staple food worldwide and mitigating climate change. However, the comprehensive evaluation...

Soil Organic Carbon Stocks
The soil carbon (C) stock of terrestrial biomes is determined by natural (e.g., vegetation cover, soil type, climate) and anthropogenic (e.g., soil... -
The Effect of Waterlogging on Soil Organic Carbon Decomposition Is Dependent on Its Biochemistry
The mechanism of soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralization stimulated by anaerobic conditions is unclear. The present study was designed to test...

Altitudinal Pattern of Soil Organic Carbon and Nutrients in a Tropical Forest in Puerto Rico
Tropical forests have the highest net primary productivity and soil carbon flux yet bear large uncertainties in being a carbon sink or source under... -
Canopy gap impacts on soil organic carbon and nutrient dynamic: a meta-analysis
Key messageThe forest canopy gaps, formed by natural or anthropogenic factors, have been found to reduce soil carbon content and increase nutrient...

Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration
Terrestrial biomes in the U.S. can be managed for SOC sequestration. Sequestration for climate change adaptation and mitigation occurs when the soil... -
Sources and Cycling of Organic Matter in the Marine Water Column
The organic carbon cycle operates on multiple time scales with a only small fraction of the global reservoir actively exchanged. For the marine... -
Dynamic carbon flux network of a diverse marine microbial community
The functioning of microbial ecosystems has important consequences from global climate to human health, but quantitative mechanistic understanding...
