Drought reduces formation, but enhances persistence, of mineral-associated organic matter in a grassland soil

Noah W. Sokol, Megan M. Foley, Steven J. Blazewicz…·Jennifer Pett‐Ridge

This study examines how drought affects the formation and persistence of mineral-associated organic matter in grassland soil, finding reduced formation but enhanced persistence of detrital-derived MAOM.

Specialist Generalist Trade Offs in Microbial Growth Rates Across Soil Habitats

Megan M. Foley, Noah W. Sokol, Bram WG Stone…·Bruce A. Hungate

The paper measures microbial growth rates in soil habitats to test if specialists grow faster than generalists, finding specialists do, with fungal responses differing due to life-history strategies.

Reduced accrual of mineral-associated organic matter after two years of enhanced rock weathering in cropland soils, though no net losses of soil organic carbon

Noah W. Sokol, Jaeeun Sohng, Kimber C. Moreland…·Kate M. Scow

This study evaluates the impact of enhanced rock weathering on soil organic matter pools over two years, finding reduced mineral-associated organic matter accrual without net losses of soil organic carbon.
