Abstract:<p>Most models of soil C dynamics can be expressed by the differential vector equation:</p>
<p><strong>dC(t)/dt = f(t).K.C(t) + b(t)</strong></p>
<p>where each element of the vector C(t) represents a carbon compartment with intrinsic decomposition rate (usually fast, slow and passive); K is the transition matrix between the compartments (decomposition rates and decomposition partitioning); the scalar function f(t)… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
