In all three soil types, soils under no-tillage had greater total SOC and greater C in microaggregates. More than 90% of the difference in total SOC between no-tillage and conventional tillage was attributable to the difference in microaggregate-associated C, regardless of clay mineralogy differences.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightSoil organic matterCarbon sequestrationSoil managementConservation agricultureConservation tillageNo-tillConventional tillageSoil organic carbon (soc)MicroaggregatesMacroaggregatesParticulate organic matter (pom)Field ScaleAbstractCopyright 2004 Soil Science Society of America
