Download or read book The Influence of Tillage and Soil Properties on Soil Organic Matter Fractions and Dynamics in Soils from New York and Brazil written by Alexandre Nunes Cardoso and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of physical fractionation procedures along with the study of soil aggregation has advanced the understanding of SOM protection mechanisms. In this study, tillage and soil aggregation were evaluated as controllinbg factors of SOM dynamics. This was done through the use of physical fractionation procedures and the natural 13C abaundance technique in soils contrasting in mineralogy and texture.
