Close Proximity

Marine sediments containing land-derived organic matter can be identified by a combination of high organic carbon concentration, high C and H relative to N, and the presence of lignin. Sediments with this combination of characteristics have been found in certain environments within the Gulf of St. Lawrence, in particular, in close proximity to pulp and paper mills.

Annual Changes

After 47 yr of no-till and reduced summerfallow at Lethbridge, Alberta, soil organic carbon concentration and stocks increased 2.14 g kg−1 and 2.22 Mg ha−1, respectively, in the surface 7.5 cm layer. These findings confirmed the conservation value of reducing tillage and summerfallow. The annual changes were relatively small.
