The Depth Distribution of Soil Organic Carbon in Relation to Land Use and Management and the Potential of Carbon Sequestration in Subsoil Horizons
Klaus Lorenz,Rattan Lal +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the subsoil carbon (C) sequestration may be achieved by higher inputs of fairly stable organic matter to deeper soil horizons, which can be achieved directly by selecting plants/cultivars with deeper and thicker root systems that are high in chemical recalcitrant compounds like suberin.

Assessing amendment and fertilizing properties of digestates from anaerobic digestion through a comparative study with digested sludge and compost
Fulvia Tambone,Barbara Scaglia,Giuliana D'Imporzano,Andrea Schievano,V. Orzi,Silvia Salati,Fabrizio Adani +6 more
TL;DR: The results showed that digestates differed from ingestates and also from compost, although the starting organic mix influenced the digestate final characteristics, and appears to be a very good candidate to replace inorganic fertilizers, also contributing, to the short-term soil organic matter turnover.

Fluorescence characteristics and biodegradability of dissolved organic matter in forest and wetland soils from coastal temperate watersheds in southeast Alaska
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used PARAFAC modeling of excitation-emission fluorescence spectroscopy, specific UV absorbance (SUVA254) and biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) incubations to investigate the chemical quality of DOM in soil water collected from 25 cm piezometers in four different wetland and forest soils: bog, forested wetland, fen and upland forest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strengthening the soil organic carbon pool by increasing contributions from recalcitrant aliphatic bio(macro)molecules
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that increasing the soil organic carbon pool by land-use and management practices should also include strategies to increase the proportion of aliphatic compounds in the belowground biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing amendment properties of digestate by studying the organic matter composition and the degree of biological stability during the anaerobic digestion of the organic fraction of MSW.
TL;DR: The transformation of organic matter during anaerobic digestion of mixtures of energetic crops, cow slurry, agro-industrial waste and organic fraction of municipal solid waste was studied by analysing different samples at diverse points during the anaer aerobic digestion process in a full-scale plant.
