The significance of organic separates to carbon dynamics and its modelling in some cultivated soils
Abstract
Summary: Soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics are usually described by compartmental models. We have sought SOM separates that might be related to SOM dynamic compartments. The turnover of C in various separates from long–term field experiments with maize was measured using the natural 13 C labelling technique. The Rothamsted carbon model gave a good prediction of the observed C turnover. Primary particle–size fractions coarser than 50 μm had short lives, and could be associated with the plant structural compartment of models. Water–extractable components are enriched in young C but cannot be associated with labile compartments. None of the chemical separates obtained by acid hydrolysis, wet oxidation, thermic oxidation, pyrolysis or alkaline extraction, were enriched either in young or old C. The results showed neither a sequential relation between fulvic acids and humic acids nor a resistance of nonhydrolysable material. The range of lifetimes of soil C seems to be determined more by physical position and protection than by the chemical nature of SOM.

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.
