Different Amounts of Added Litter Do Not Affect Long‐Term Carbon Mineralization and Stabilization in Topsoils and Subsoils

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Over half of global soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks are stored in subsoil. A larger fraction of carbon (C) input may be retained and stabilized in subsoil as compared to topsoil. This retained fraction determines C sequestration efficiency, which may also depend on the amount of C input.
