Article Synopsis
- * It also boosts the presence of humic substances and microbial biomass carbon in the topsoil, although there's a slight decrease in microbial biomass carbon in the subsoil.
- * Key findings suggest that biochar application stabilizes SOC by promoting mineral-associated soil organic matter (MAOM) formation, which is crucial for long-term carbon sequestration in calcareous farmland.
