Comparing carbon and nitrogen stocks in paddy and upland soils: Accumulation, stabilization mechanisms, and environmental drivers
Paddy soils, a type of Hydragric Anthrosol, have much greater soil organic C (SOC) and total
N (TN) contents than that in upland soils. However, this fact has never been generalized or …
