SOILDEEPCHANGE

Unraveling the role of soil layers deeper than 30 cm in a changing world

DEEPSOILCHANGE seeks to develop a baseline understanding of (i) how soil organic carbon and nutrient storage is controlled in first 30 cm of soil (hereinafter, DSLs), (ii) how topsoil and DSLs differ with regard to microbial and faunal communities and their processes, and (iii) how anthropogenic changes (land-use change, climate change) affect DSLs and what repercussions this has on ecosystem carbon and nutrient storage capacities.
