Clay Mineralogy: Soil Carbon Stabilization and Organic Matter Interaction

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Soil Carbon Stabilization to Mitigate Climate Change

Abstract

In recent time, concerns are rising related to climate change, and mitigation measure such as soil has caught attention for the research community as a reservoir for storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). The soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization mechanisms have recently received a lot of focus because of its significance in governing the global carbon (C) cycle. The aim of the present chapter lies in reviewing the existing understanding on soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics with particular mention toward the contribution of clay mineralogy in retention as well as the stabilization of organic C in the soil. Thorough knowledge of the SOC stabilization mechanisms would assist in implementing optimal management practices for storage of SOC, enhancing the soil structure, and lastly mitigating the emissions of greenhouse gases. In this chapter, the relationships existing between SOC dynamics with its sources as well as sinks, aspects controlling SOC sequestration, and several mechanisms involved in the process of SOC stabilization are discussed. The studies related to soil examination, management, and environmental factors that affect the SOC stabilization with a particular mention to the clay mineralogy are provided.
