DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2017.05.027
Abstract: Abstract Wetting rate is one of the major factors determining the magnitude of slaking force in soils. Differences in wetting rate result in varying degrees of soil aggregate breakdown that alters the distribution of particle… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2019.104107
Abstract: Abstract Alpine wetlands can function as carbon sinks because of their high soil organic content and low decomposition rates. However, the effects of alpine wetland succession on soil structure and soil organic carbon (SOC) stability… read more here.
