Abstract:Soil is the largest terrestrial sink of Carbon (C). Carbon sequestration in soil is important for soil quality as well as to mitigate CO2 loading in atmosphere. Study on C of surface soil layer is going on for long time. Only in the recent past, scientists have noticed the importance of subsoil as a store house of stable C. On the contrary, study of C dynamics in tropical rice soil is important in countries like India where rice is the predominant crop and soil C sequestration is at risk due to high temperatur… Show more
