A dual isotope approach to isolate soil carbon pools of different turnover times

Soils are globally significant sources and sinks of atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub>. Increasing the resolution of soil carbon turnover estimates is important for predicting the response of soil carbon cycling to environmental change. We show that soil carbon turnover times can be more finely...
