Physical Fractionation of Soil and Organic Matter in Primary Particle Size and Density Separates
TL;DR: The soil organic matter (SOM) pool encompasses plant, animal, and microbial residues in all stages of decay and a diversity of heterogeneous organic substances intimately associated with inorganic soil components.
Journal ArticleDOI
In-situ formation of light-absorbing organic matter in cloud water
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that aromatic hydroxy-acids which are found in continental fine aerosol can react with hydroxyl radicals under typical conditions prevalent in cloud water influenced by biomass burning.

Decomposition of wheat straw and stabilization of microbial products
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the effects of soil environment on the decomposition of cereal crop residues and stabilization of microbial products in the field and found that the residual C and N at this site decayed at a slightly slower rate, providing evidence of stabilization of organic material in chemically resistant forms.
