Factors controlling soil structure dynamics and carbon sequestration across different climatic and lithological conditions

Original language description

The CAST model was used to simulate soil organic carbon aggregation and sequestration, and structure dynamics in seven international Critical Zone Observatories network including natural ecosystems and agricultural fields. The natural ecosystems were represented by the Damma Glacier CZO (Switzerland), Black Soils (China), Koiliaris CZO (Greece), Clear Creek (USA) and the Slavkov Forest CZO (Czech Republic). The agricultural field sites were located at Black Soils (China), Koiliaris CZO (Greece), Clear Creek (USA), Marchfeld CZO (Austria) and Milia (Greece). A meta-analysis of the influence of environmental factors using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was carried out to identify the most important factors that control soil structure development. Overall, the modeling results of the CAST model for both the natural restoration and the agricultural management sites were consistent with the field data. The model was able to describe the C and soil structure dynamics in a wide variety of natural and agricultural sites around the world covering climatic, soil and geographic gradients. The results showed that the CAST model can be used as tool on a sustainability-by-design mode. The PCA indicated the predominant factors controlling soil structure and carbon sequestration to be among soil properties, climatic conditions , decomposition rates of organic matter, and the formation rates and predominant composers of macro aggregates.
