Macroaggregate disintegration mediates forest gap impacts on MAOC decrease in karst ecosystems
DOI:10.1016/j.geoderma.2025.117661.png)
Abstract
En 中文
• The study combined aggregate fractionation with biomarker analysis to trace C sources and stability. • Physical breakdown of macroaggregates is the primary mechanism of MAOC loss. • Microbial necromass depletion, not plant inputs, is the critical driver of this C loss. • Protecting soil structure is key to mitigating C loss under increasing forest disturbances.
