Influence of Pore Characteristics on the Fate and Distribution of Newly Added Carbon

Influence of Pore Characteristics on the Fate and Distribution of Newly Added Carbon

Pores create a transportation network within a soil matrix, which controls the flow of air, water, and movement of microorganisms. The flow of air, water, and movement of microbes, in turn, control soil carbon dynamics. Computed microtomography (μCT) allows for the visualization of pore structure at...
