Soil organic matter (SOM) is the largest actively cycling reservoir of terrestrial carbon (C),
and the majority of SOM in Earth's mineral soils (~ 65%) is mineral‐associated organic …

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 …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is closely tied to soil health. However, additional biological
indicators may also provide insight about C dynamics and microbial activity. We used SOC …

Aggregation affects soil properties crucial for sustainable soil management and productivity.
However, longer-term studies (> five years) of treatments to enhance soil aggregation, such …

Environmental transitions often result in resource mixtures that overcome limitations to
microbial metabolism, resulting in biogeochemical hotspots and moments. Riverine systems …

The capacity of soil as a carbon (C) sink is mediated by interactions between organic matter
and mineral phases. However, previously proposed layered accumulation of organic matter …

Climate change is intensifying the global water cycle, with increased frequency of drought
and flood. Water is an important driver of soil carbon dynamics, and it is crucial to …

Drought is one of the most important climate change factors, but its effects on ecosystems
are little understood. While known to influence soil carbon (C) cycling, it remains unresolved …

Soil freeze-thaw (FT) and dry-wet (DW) cycles are brief transitory biophysical changes, but
these events have important implications in determining the timing and magnitude of N 2 O …

Current consensus on global climate change predicts warming trends with more
pronounced temperature changes in winter than summer in the Northern Hemisphere at …
