Iron (Fe) minerals play an important role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (SOC). Fe-
mediated SOC protection is mainly achieved through adsorption, co-precipitation, or …

Iron (Fe) oxides are widely recognized to prevent the degradation of organic matter (OM) in
environments, thereby promoting the persistence of organic carbon (OC) in soils. Thus …

Soil organic matter (SOM) is correlated with reactive iron (Fe) in humid soils, but Fe also
promotes SOM decomposition when oxygen (O2) becomes limited. Here we quantify Fe …

Soil organic matter (SOM) has often been separated into operational physical fractions, such
as particulate organic matter (POM) and mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM), to …

Sphagnum wetlands are global hotspots for carbon storage, conventionally attributed to the
accumulation of decay-resistant litter. However, the buildup of mineral-associated organic …

Identifying controls on soil organic carbon (SOC) storage, and where SOC is most
vulnerable to loss, are essential to managing soils for both climate change mitigation and …

It has been shown that reactive soil minerals, specifically iron (III)(oxyhydr) oxides, can trap
organic carbon in soils overlying intact permafrost, and may limit carbon mobilization and …

Most empirical and modeling research on soil carbon (C) dynamics has focused on those
processes that control and promote C stabilization. However, we lack a strong …

Oscillating redox conditions are a common feature of humid tropical forest soils, driven by an
ample supply and dynamics of reductants, high moisture, microbial oxygen consumption …

Global warming poses an unprecedented threat to agroecosystems. Although temperature
increases are more pronounced during winter than in other seasons, the impact of winter …
