A comparison of two methods for quantifying soil organic carbon of alpine grasslands on the Tibetan Plateau.
As CO2 concentrations continue to rise and drive global climate change, much effort has been put into estimating soil carbon (C) stocks and dynamics over time. However, the inconsistent methods employed by researchers hamper the comparability of such works, creating a pressing need to standardize th...
