Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key component of the carbon (C) cycle, and its accumulation
is influenced by the stoichiometry of C: nitrogen (N): phosphorus (P), as well as microbial …

Cover crops may enhance soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration, but the links among
SOC fractions, microbial necromass carbon (C), and SOC sequestration potential in legume …

Plant-and microbial-derived compounds are the two primary sources of the soil organic
carbon (SOC) pool. However, whether and how biotic and abiotic factors regulate the means …

Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) accounts for a large fraction of soil organic carbon
(SOC) in terrestrial ecosystems. Yet our understanding of the fate of this large carbon pool …

The frequency and intensity of droughts worldwide are challenging the conservation of soil
organic carbon (SOC) pool. Microbial necromass is a key component of SOC, but how it …

Climate‐smart agriculture (CSA) supports the sustainability of crop production and food
security, and benefiting soil carbon storage. Despite the critical importance of …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is the core component of terrestrial carbon (C) sink. Exploring the
transformation and stabilization mechanism of SOC is key to understand the function of …

In the context of global warming, the focus of research in grape ecology has shifted towards
the role of vineyards as carbon sinks and their capacity for soil carbon sequestration. Given …

Soil microbial necromass is an important contributor to soil organic matter (> 50%) and it is
largely composed of microbial residues. In soils, fragmented cell wall residues are mostly …

Roots can add significant amounts of carbon (C) to the subsoil, which improves soil physical
properties and can mitigate climate change. About 5% of croplands in Germany have been …
