Persistence of soil organic matter as an ecosystem property
- M. Schmidt, M. Torn, +11 authors S. Trumbore
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Nature
- 6 October 2011
Globally, soil organic matter (SOM) contains more than three times as much carbon as either the atmosphere or terrestrial vegetation. Yet it remains largely unknown why some SOM persists for… Expand
Dynamic molecular structure of plant biomass-derived black carbon (biochar).
- Marco Keiluweit, P. Nico, M. Johnson, M. Kleber
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Environmental science & technology
- 25 January 2010
Char black carbon (BC), the solid residue of incomplete combustion, is continuously being added to soils and sediments due to natural vegetation fires, anthropogenic pollution, and new strategies for… Expand
The contentious nature of soil organic matter
- J. Lehmann, M. Kleber
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Nature
- 23 November 2015
The exchange of nutrients, energy and carbon between soil organic matter, the soil environment, aquatic systems and the atmosphere is important for agricultural productivity, water quality and… Expand
A conceptual model of organo-mineral interactions in soils: self-assembly of organic molecular fragments into zonal structures on mineral surfaces
- M. Kleber, P. Sollins, R. Sutton
- Chemistry
- 15 June 2007
In this paper, we propose a structure for organo-mineral associations in soils based on recent insights concerning the molecular structure of soil organic matter (SOM), and on extensive published… Expand
Chapter One - Mineral–Organic Associations: Formation, Properties, and Relevance in Soil Environments
- M. Kleber, K. Eusterhues, Marco Keiluweit, C. Mikutta, R. Mikutta, P. Nico
- Chemistry
- 2015
Abstract Minerals and organic matter (OM) may form intricate associations via myriad interactions. In soils, the associations of OM with mineral surfaces are mainly investigated because of their role… Expand
Organo-mineral associations in temperate soils: Integrating biology, mineralogy, and organic matter chemistry
- I. Kögel-Knabner, Georg Guggenberger, +5 authors P. Leinweber
- Chemistry
- 1 February 2008
We summarize progress with respect to (1) different approaches to isolate, extract, and quantify organo-mineral compounds from soils, (2) types of mineral surfaces and associated interactions, (3)… Expand
Organic C and N stabilization in a forest soil: Evidence from sequential density fractionation
- P. Sollins, C. W. Swanston, +6 authors R. Bowden
- Chemistry
- 1 November 2006
Abstract In mineral soil, organic matter (OM) accumulates mainly on and around surfaces of silt- and clay-size particles. When fractionated according to particle density, C and N concentration (per g… Expand
Review: organic matter removal from soils using hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite, and disodium peroxodisulfate
- R. Mikutta, M. Kleber, K. Kaiser, R. Jahn
- Chemistry
- 11 October 2005
We compare the performance of three most accepted reagents for organic matter removal: hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCI) and disodium peroxodisulfate (Na 2 S 2 O 8 ). Removal… Expand

Poorly crystalline mineral phases protect organic matter in acid subsoil horizons
- M. Kleber, R. Mikutta, M. Torn, R. Jahn
- Chemistry
- 1 December 2005
Summary
Soil minerals are known to influence the biological stability of soil organic matter (SOM). Our study aimed to relate properties of the mineral matrix to its ability to protect organic C… Expand
Water uptake in biochars: The roles of porosity and hydrophobicity
- M. Gray, M. Johnson, M. I. Dragila, M. Kleber
- Chemistry
- 1 February 2014
Abstract We assessed the effects of porosity and hydrophobicity on water uptake by biochars. Biochars were produced from two feedstocks (hazelnut shells and Douglas fir chips) at three production… Expand
