Popis: | Highlights • We quantified methodological effects on POXC values for a diverse set of soils across the USA. • No single soil mass × grind size combination provided POXC results within the method’s quantitation limits for all soils studied. • Soil mass and mesh size had a marked effect on POXC values. • The POXC method falls short as an analytical method for measuring a well-defined C pool. • Implications for the use of POXC as a national soil health monitoring are discussed. |
