Abstract:Context Land use change (LUC) is considered one of the main factors associated with soil carbon (C) loss worldwide. Aim Evaluate changes in labile and non-labile soil organic matter (SOM) fractions in different land use systems – native vegetation (NV), agriculture with conventional cultivation (CC) and pasture (PA) – in five soil classes in the Brazilian semi-arid region. Methods Soil samples were collected to a depth of 100 cm, and soil C and nitrogen (N) content and stocks were determined and … Show more
