“However, eventually a new equilibrium will be reached (West and Six 2007), which will be affected by the initial organic matter content of the soil as well as the management change (Jensen et al. 2022b).”

“Further, results presented by Cotrufo et al. (2019) and others (West and Six, 2007;Jagadamma et al., 2014;Nicoloso et al., 2018) lead us to question the certainty of soil C saturation in grassland soils.”

“For example, West and Post (2002) estimate that a change from conventional tillage to no-till results in an average 14.7±3.1% increase in soil C, with the average field experiment being 15.4±2.8 yrs (see Table 1). Disaggregating the data by climate regime indicates a 16.6±6.6% increase in soil C over 13.9±5.5 years in…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
