Carbon, a major constituent of structural and energy-releasing
organic molecules, is essential to life. A substantial amount of C
found in soils is available as soluble organic molecules (SOM) or
particulate organic matter (POM) derived from plant primary
production. Available atmospheric C as CO2, used by plants during
photosynthesis, is part of a larger biogeochemical cycle, including
the cyclic release of CO2 by respiration in living organisms and
its fixation through photosynthesis. Carbon also is fixed through
biological calcification and is eventually bound in
carbonate-containing rocks, especially in aquatic and marine
environments. This book focuses mainly on soil carbon and its
environmental benefits.
