Mineral–microbe interactions play important roles in environmental change, biogeochemical
cycling of elements and formation of ore deposits. Minerals provide both beneficial (physical …

Iron (Fe) is the fourth most abundant element in the earth's crust and plays important roles in
both biological and chemical processes. The redox reactivity of various Fe (II) forms has …

Soil is the largest terrestrial reservoir of organic carbon and is central for climate change
mitigation and carbon-climate feedbacks. Chemical and physical associations of soil carbon …

Soil organic matter decomposition and its interactions with climate depend on whether the
organic matter is associated with soil minerals. However, data limitations have hindered …

Nitrogen (N) availability has been considered as a critical factor for the cycling and storage
of soil organic carbon (SOC), but effects of N enrichment on the SOC pool appear highly …

The interactions between clay minerals and organic matter, specifically adsorption, are
widely recognized as a crucial mechanism for promoting the preservation of organic matter …

Soil organic carbon (SOC), as the largest terrestrial carbon pool, plays an important role in
global carbon (C) cycling, which may be significantly impacted by global changes such as …

Managing soil organic matter (SOM) stocks to address global change challenges requires
well‐substantiated knowledge of SOM behavior that can be clearly communicated between …

Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) is increasing, which increases leaf‐scale
photosynthesis and intrinsic water‐use efficiency. These direct responses have the potential …

Soil organic carbon formation remains poorly understood despite its importance for human
livelihoods. Uncertainties remain for the relative contributions of aboveground, root, and …
