This special issue aims to address this critical knowledge gap by showcasing cutting-edge research on the mechanisms, measurement techniques, management practices, and modelling frameworks that determine the stability of soil carbon pools across different ecosystems and land uses. Understanding SOC stability is essential for ensuring the permanence of carbon offsets, designing effective climate-smart land management strategies, and guiding international carbon markets.
Submission Deadline: 30 April 2026 | Expected 2026
This special issue seeks to bring together cutting-edge research that advances our understanding of the responses of soil C and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems to global changes and human disturbances. By synthesizing recent advances and identifying key research priorities, this special issue will contribute to enhancing our ability to predict and manage the impacts of environmental changes on forest biogeochemistry and ecosystem functioning.
Submission Deadline: 31 August 2025 | Expected 2025
The special issue publishes review articles, opinion/position papers, original papers and short communications on contributions to the Centennial IUSS meeting, held in May 2024 in Firenze,
