Developing a molecular picture of soil organic matter–mineral interactions by quantifying organo–mineral binding
Most molecular scale knowledge on soil organo–mineral interactions remains qualitative due to instrument limitations. Here, the authors use force spectroscopy to directly measure free binding energy between organic ligands and minerals and find that both chemistry and environmental conditions affect...
