Title Storage and Stability of Soil Organic Carbon in Aspen and Conifer Forest Soils of Northern Utah
Creator Van Miegroet, Helga Woldeselassie, Mical Gruselle, Marie-Cecile Hambly, Nickoll
Description This study compares the amount, distribution, and stability of soil organic carbon (SOC) in six paired quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx) and conifer plots at three locations in northern Utah, to assess the influence of vegetation cover and other biotic and abiotic drivers on SOC storage capacity in seasonally dry environments. Aspen soils accumulated significantly more SOC in the mineral soil (0–60 cm) (92.2 ± 26.7 Mg C ha−1 vs. 66.9 ± 18.6 Mg C ha−1 under conifers), and despite...
