Experimental test of temperature and moisture controls on the rate of microbial decomposition of soil organic matter: preliminary results
Soil organic matter (SOM) is a major reservoir of carbon derived from the biosphere that is returned to the atmosphere largely via microbial decomposition. The potential for feedbacks between climate change and SOM decomposition makes a full understanding of the controls on SOM decomposition rates e...
