Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

The soil carbon (C) stock, comprising soil organic C (SOC) and soil inorganic C (SIC) and
being the largest reservoir of the terrestrial biosphere, is a critical part of the global C cycle …

The effects of topography, land cover type, and soil physicochemical properties on the
distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) have drawn growing …

The measurement of potential enzymatic activities has been proposed as an efficient
method to infer nutrient limitations for microorganisms in environmental samples. To validate …

The soil organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen (N) in the Yunnan Province, southwestern
China, is related to the complex topography and multiple vegetation zones. However, the …

Variations in soil organic carbon (SOC) and its fractions within soil aggregates in response
to land-use change are important to understand the carbon cycles in terrestrial ecosystem …

In recent decades, mangrove ecosystems at coastal zone are experiencing rapid land-use
conversion, however effects of land use on the heavy metal pollution in mangrove sediments …

Soil organic matter is a heterogeneous and complex entity that consists of a diverse range of
compounds. However, the responses of soil organic carbon (SOC) fractions with different …

Anthropogenic land use change (LUC) affects soil quality and the global carbon (C) pool.
Such LUC is a potential threat for forest ecosystems because it can alter soil biome and …
