Fine silt and clay content is the main factor defining maximal C and N accumulations in soils: a meta-analysis

Abstract When studying carbon (C) sequestration in soil, it is necessary to recognize the maximal storage potential and the main influencing factors, including the climate, land use, and soil properties. Here, we hypothesized that the silt and clay contents in soils as well as the clay mineralogy ar...
