Abstract
The extent of mineralization of organic carbon (carbon dioxide production) during incubation at 28° C. of a sandy loam was determined (a) over 6–12 weeks at varying static moisture levels over the range from air-dried to waterlogged, (b) over a second 6-week period after changing soil moisture level, maintained at various moisture levels during the first 6-week period, to 50% saturation or to waterlogging.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
