Soil organic matter (SOM) represents a major reservoir of stored carbon (C). However,
uncertainties regarding the composition and origin of stabilized SOM hinder the implementation of …

Photosynthetically fixed CO 2 is converted into terrestrial bio(macro)molecules and sequestered
as soil organic matter (SOM) by (bio)chemical and physical stabilization processes. …

Purpose Soil water repellency (SWR) can interrupt water infiltration that may decline plant
growth and potentially trigger soil erosion. Until now research has been mainly focused on …

Ferns are the closest sister group to all seed plants, yet little is known about their genomes
other than that they are generally colossal. Here, we report on the genomes of Azolla …

The composition of amorphous and condensed soil/sediment organic matter (SOM) domains
was investigated for one soil sample and four sediment samples. These samples were …

The mobility of Al and Fe in acidic sandy forest soils is greatly influenced by interactions with
dissolved organic matter (DOM). We determined the distribution of Al, Fe(II) and Fe(III) over …

Differences in soil organic matter (SOM) composition in consecutive soil profiles (under algae,
grass, moss, heather and pine) from a primary vegetation succession (central Netherlands…

For a detailed reconstruction of historic upper forest line (UFL) positions, new proxies in
addition to traditional pollen and vegetation analyses are needed. If the straight-chain lipid …

Part of a large male woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) was preserved in permafrost
in northern Yakutia. It was radiocarbon dated to ca. 18,50014C yr BP (ca. 22,500 cal yr BP)…

The base-hydrolysable fraction of roots and soil organic matter (SOM) in mineral subsoils
from oak forests (coastal dunes, The Netherlands) with a soil pH varying from pH (CaCl 2 ) 6.9 …
