“…Soil organic carbon (SOC; concentration and pool) and its dynamics are key determinants of soil quality and for the provisioning of essential ecosystem services (Koch et al 2012;Stockman et al 2013). Thus, soil should be appropriately defined as an organic C-mediated realm in which solid, liquid, gaseous, and biological components interact from nanometer to landscape scale to generate ecosystem services essential to all terrestrial life.…”

“…The central importance of developing crop management practices that sustain soil resources was recently recognized internationally through the launch of a Soil Carbon Initiative by the United States Studies Centre and the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Sydney (Sydney, Australia) [7]. That initiative focuses on the maintenance and improvement of soils worldwide so that they can continue to provide food, feed, fiber and freshwater, contribute to energy and climate sustainability, and help to maintain biodiversity and protect ecosystem goods and services.…”
