Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Light fraction carbon (LFC), a physically distinct and relatively unstable component of soil organic matter, consists of partially decomposed residues and serves as a sensitive indicator of management impacts on soil health, isolated through density fractionation techniques. This approach provides valuable insights into the labile carbon pool and its role in nutrient cycling and soil sustainability.
