Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Compared to annual crops, Miscanthus has the potential to sequester C due to reduced soil disturbance, the translocation of C from above-ground biomass to roots and rhizomes, and the provision of soil C inputs from leaf litter.

    “Compared to annual crops, Miscanthus has the potential to sequester C due to reduced soil disturbance (tillage is only required as part of the initial cultivation; Post & Kwon, 2000), the translocation of C from above‐ground biomass to roots and rhizomes (Kuzyakov & Domanski, 2000), and the provision of soil C inputs from leaf litter (Amougou, Bertrand, Machet, & Recous, 2011).”
  • Leaf litter inputs to the soil are an important part of carbon cycling.

    “Leaf litter inputs to the soil are an important part of carbon cycling (Amougou et al., 2011) and we found that Hyb 4, which lost the most below‐ground biomass between T6 and T12, also had the highest ripening loss which may have acted as compensation.”
  • Data for carbon inputs from belowground biomass are difficult to interpret, especially for roots, because they are based on many single observations rather than time series.

    “Data for C inputs from BGB are difficult to interpret, especially for roots because they are based on many single observations [45, 61, 62, 64, 80] rather than time series [26, 32, 81–83].”
  • Miscanthus rhizomes and roots are potentially the most easily decomposable parts, but the rhizome's carbohydrate and crude protein content changes seasonally to support spring regrowth.

    “Miscanthus rhizomes and roots are potentially the most easily decomposable parts [64], but in its [19] function as a storage organ, the carbohydrate and crude protein content of the rhizome changes seasonally to support regrowth of the plants in spring [105].”
  • Litter decay is proportional to its nutrient content and inversely proportional to lignin content, and is also controlled by nutrient availability, particularly nitrogen, in the soil.

    “In general terms, litter decay is proportional to its nutrient content and inversely proportional to lignin content [64]; it is also controlled by nutrient availability (particularly N) in the soil [112, 113].”

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.
