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 …

Simple plant and microbial exudates destabilize mineral-associated organic matter via multiple pathways
Most mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM) is protected against microbial attack,
thereby contributing to long-term carbon storage in soils. However, the extent to which …

Rewetting of soil: revisiting the origin of soil CO2 emissions
Rewetting dry soils is associated with a burst of microbial activity and mineralization, which
manifests itself as a pulse in soil CO 2 emissions, long-known as the Birch effect. In arid and …
