On-farm study reveals positive relationship between gas transport capacity and organic carbon content in arable soil

<p>Arable soils may act as a sink in the global carbon cycle, but the prediction of their potential for carbon sequestration remains challenging. Amongst other factors, soil aeration is known to influence root growth and microbial activity and thus inputs and decomposition of soil organic carb...
