Challenges in modelling dissolved organic matter dynamics in agricultural soil using DAISY

open access: yes, 2008
Because dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an important role is terrestrial C-,N-and P-balances and transport of these three components to aquatic environments, there is a need to include it in models.

Characteristics of soil organic carbon fractions and influencing factors in different understory mosses in karst urban parks

open access: yesScientific Reports
The impact of different vegetation types on soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key focus in global warming research. Bryophytes, commonly found in karst urban forests, significantly contribute to carbon accumulation in surface soil.

Increasing plant diversity enhances soil organic carbon storage in typical wetlands of northern China

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Soil organic carbon plays an important role in climate change mitigation, and can be strongly affected by plant diversity. Although a positive effect of plant diversity on soil organic carbon storage has been confirmed in grasslands and forests, it ...

Loss of soil organic matter and soil organic carbon

open access: yes, 2020
Our well-being and the livelihoods of human societies are highly dependent on biodiversity and the ecosystem services it provides. It is essential that we understand these links and the consequences of biodiversity loss for the various global challenges we currently face, including food insecurity and malnutrition, climate change, poverty and diseases.

Historical and sociocultural aspects of soil organic matter and soil organic carbon benefits.

open access: yes, 2014
In this chapter, soil organic matter (SOM) benefits will be considered from two different perspectives: (i) the scientific perception of 'SOM benefits' between the 18th century and today; and (ii) how various contemporary religions and societies, including farmers of Western cultures, perceive soil and SOM benefits.

Sorption and fractionation of dissolved organic matter and associated phosphorus in agricultural soil

open access: yes, 2007
Molibility of dissolved organic matter (DOM) strongly affects the export of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from oils to surface waters. To study the sorption an mobility of dissolved organic C and P (DOC, DOP) in soil, the pH-dependent sorption of DOM ...

Carbon allocation and carbon isotope fluxes in the plant-soil-atmosphere continuum: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The terrestrial carbon (C) cycle has received increasing interest over the past few decades, however, there is still a lack of understanding of the fate of newly assimilated C allocated within plants and to the soil, stored within ecosystems and lost to ...
