The role of geochemistry in organic carbon stabilization against microbial decomposition in tropical rainforest soils

<p>Stabilization of soil organic carbon (SOC) against microbial decomposition depends on several soil properties, including the soil weathering stage and the mineralogy of parent material. As such, tropical SOC stabilization mechanisms likely differ from those in temperate soils due to contra...
