Chair of Soil Science
Institution
Section overview
Description
At the Chair of Soil Science they work on the general characterisation of soil organic matter and the identification and extraction of functional soil organic matter pools that are important for long term stabilisation of carbon in soils and at the same time are responsible for the formation of biogeochemical interfaces in aggregated soils.
