Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Soils with higher bulk density and lower SOC content are likely to have higher saturation deficit and thus may have higher potential to increase SOC stocks.

    “Soils with higher BD and lower SOC content are likely to have higher saturation deficit (Six, Conant, Paul, & Paustian, 2002)-the difference between maximum and minimum SOC that could be achieved-and thus may have higher potential to increase the SOC stocks (Vicente-Vicente, Gómez-Muñoz, Hinojosa-Centeno, Smith, & Garcia-Ruiz, 2017).”

  • Both the unprotected and protected POM in microaggregates are the most sensitive C fractions to management practices and land-use change.

    “Both the unprotected and protected POM in microaggregates are the most sensitive C fractions to management practices and landuse change (Six et al., 2002).”
  • Continuous plant input and minimal soil disturbance under bioenergy perennial crops led to an increase in the C content of the particulate organic matter (POM) fraction after 6 years of establishment, confirming previous evidence that the POM-C fraction is most prone to land-use change.

    “The continuous plant input and the minimal soil disturbance under bioenergy perennial crops led to an increase in the C content of the particulate organic matter (POM) fraction after 6 years of the establishment (Fig. 2), confirming previous evidences that POM-C fraction is the most prone to land-use change (Six et al., 2002;De Gryze et al., 2004).”
  • Usually, soils with lower soil organic matter content benefit more from organic amendment, in net primary production and improvement in soil properties, than those with higher contents.

    “Usually, soils with lower soil organic matter content benefit more from organic amendment, in net primary production and improvement in soil properties, than those with higher contents.”

  • According to the carbon saturation theory, soils with low soil organic carbon content have a greater carbon stabilization efficiency than those with higher contents.

    “According to the carbon saturation theory, soils with low soil organic carbon content would have a greater carbon stabilization efficiency than those with higher contents (Six et al. 2002).”

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.
