Abstract:
Soil organic carbon management is a nature-based carbon dioxide removal technology at the same time contributing to soil health and agricultural productivity. The soil science communities are refuting the traditional assumptions of the nature of soil organic matter as based on ‘humic substances’ that are operationally-defined and have not been observed by contemporary, in situ spectromicroscopic techniques. Here, we present a theory-driven review where a combination of in situ methods serve as potential solutions to better understand the persistence and dynamics of soil organic carbon and its effects on nutrient distribution at a micro- and nano-scale.
