Quantifying and isolating stable soil organic carbon using long-term bare fallow experiments

The stability of soil organic matter (SOM) is a major source of uncertainty in predicting atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> concentration during the 21st century. Isolating the stable soil carbon (C) from other, more labile, C fractions in soil is of prime importance for calibra...
