Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,
