| Title | Does tree species composition control soil organic carbon pools in Mediterranean mountain forests? |
| Creator | Van Miegroet, Helga Diaz-Pines, Eugenio Rubio, Agustin Montes, Fernando Benito, Marta |
| Description | We compared soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and stability under two widely distributed tree species in the Mediterranean region: Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Pyrenean oak (Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) at their ecotone. We hypothesised that soils under Scots pine store more SOC and that tree species composition controls the amount and biochemical composition of organic matter inputs, but does not influence physico-chemical stabilization of SOC. At three locations in Central Spain, we... |
