Storage and stability of organic carbon in soils as related to depth, occlusion within aggregates, and attachment to minerals
Conceptual models suggest that stability of organic carbon (OC) in soil depends on the source of plant litter, occlusion within aggregates, incorporation in organo-mineral complexes, and location within the soil profile. Density fractionation is a useful tool to study the relevance of OC stabilizati...
