The role of soil erosion in terrestrial carbon (C) sequestration and release remains one of
the most important uncertainties in our attempts to determine the potential of soils to mediate …

Most of Earth's terrestrial surface is made up of sloping landscapes. The lateral distribution
of topsoil by erosion controls the availability, stock, and persistence of essential elements in …

Both forest-floor litter and roots are known to be involved in the formation of soil organic
carbon (SOC), but it remains elusive how the two contrasting types of plant carbon sources …

Vegetation restoration on degraded lands has been encouraged worldwide due to its
ecological services and function of controlling soil erosion and improving carbon (C) stocks …

The chemical characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soils that experience
erosion and deposition are key to the biogeochemical cycle of carbon on the earth's surface …

Understanding how organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) move with soil along the fluvial
system and where eroded organic C and N sources occur over catchment landscape is of …

Declines of soil organic carbon (SOC) and degradation of soil function are caused by long-
term soil erosion and cultivation. Although the variations of bulk SOC have been extensively …

Pyrogenic carbon (PyC) constitutes an important pool of soil organic matter (SOM),
particularly for its reactivity and because of its assumed long residence times in soil. In the …

While organic carbon (OC) in agricultural mineral soils is widely studied in terms of soil
carbon sequestration and gaseous emissions, discharge-induced OC loss from soil is still …

Plants and soil microbiota play an active role in rock weathering and potentially couple
weathering at depth with erosion at the soil surface. The nature of this coupling is still …
