Soil organic carbon pools and carbon management index under different land use systems in North western Himalayas

PeerJ, 2023
Current study was conducted to evaluate the effect of important land uses and soil depth on soil organic carbon pools viz. total organic carbon, Walkley and black carbon, labile organic carbon, particulate organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon and carbon management index (CMI) in the north Western Himalayas, India.

Soil carbon pools and carbon management index under different land use systems in the Central Himalayan region

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B - Soil & Plant Science, 2013
Abstract We investigated different land use and cropping systems in the Almora region of Central Himalaya to assess total organic carbon (TOC), microbial biomass carbon (MBC), particulate organic carbon (POC), labile carbon (LC), microbial quotient (MQ) (i.e., ratio of MBC to TOC) and measured the carbon management index (CMI). The TOC content recorded

The effects of soil management practices on soil organic matter changes within a productive vineyard in the Nitra viticulture area (Slovakia)

Agriculture, 2016
Since understanding soil organic matter (SOM) content and quality is very important, in the present study we evaluated parameters of SOM including: carbon lability (LC), lability index (LI), carbon pool index (CPI) and carbon management index (CMI) in ...
