Temperature sensitivity of soil carbon decomposition and feedbacks to climate change

TL;DR: This work has suggested that several environmental constraints obscure the intrinsic temperature sensitivity of substrate decomposition, causing lower observed ‘apparent’ temperature sensitivity, and these constraints may, themselves, be sensitive to climate.

On digital soil mapping

TL;DR: The generic framework, which the authors call the scorpanSSPFe (soil spatial prediction function with spatially autocorrelated errors) method, is particularly relevant for those places where soil resource information is limited.

Soil organic matter, biota and aggregation in temperate and tropical soils - Effects of no-tillage

TL;DR: In this paper, the long-term stabilization of soil organic matter (SOM) in tropical and temperate regions is mediated by soil biota (e.g. fungi, bacte- ria, roots and earthworms), soil structure and their interactions.
