    Author : Elis Ingvarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : old growth forest; boreal; soil organic carbon stocks; climate gradient;

    Abstract : Soil organic carbon (SOC) is the largest carbon pool in terrestrial ecosystems, which plays an important role in climate change by regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide. Sweden’s forest management has led to a decrease in old growth forests. This change in land use can affect SOC levels in these forests. READ MORE
