Carbon Sequestration in Agricultural Soils A Multidisciplinary Approach to Innovative Methods

This compilation of techniques, methodologies and scientific data arises from a four-year Italian research project, which took place at university research stations in Turin, Piacenza, Naples and Potenza. Soil Organic Matter (SOM) represents an active and essential pool of the total organic carbon o...
