Large fluxes and rapid turnover of mineral-associated carbon across topographic gradients in a humid tropical forest: insights from paired <sup>14</sup>C analysis
It has been proposed that the large soil carbon (C) stocks of humid tropical forests result predominantly from C stabilization by reactive minerals, whereas oxygen (O<sub>2</sub>) limitation of decomposition has received much less attention. We examined the importance of these factors in...
