Depletion of Soil Water-Extractable Organic Matter With Long-Term Coverage by Impervious Surfaces
Water-extractable organic matter (WEOM) in soil is the critical substrate that fuels microbial-driven biogeochemical cycles. However, questions remain regarding whether and how expanding impervious surface area under global urbanization may alter soil WEOM cycling. Based on absorbance and fluorescen...
