Excerpt

The global carbon cycle is regulated by organic and inorganic biogeochemical reactions in the atmosphere, biosphere, lithosphere, and pedosphere (Nordt et al. 2000). The fundamental understanding of the carbon cycle has to deal with the transformations of various carbon forms, fluxes between different pools, variability in these pools and/or fluxes, and underlying mechanisms. However, the studies of terrestrial carbon cycle have focused on the atmosphere–land CO₂ exchanges (with or without vegetations) and stocks of above- and below-ground organic carbon pools. …
