abstract = {With the increased global interest in sequestering carbon
in soil, it is necessary to understand the composition
ofdifferent pools of soil organic matter (SOM) that cycle
over suitably short timeframes. To explore in detail
thechemical composition of agroecologically relevant yet
distinct fractions of SOM, the light fraction of SOM(LFOM),
the 53-μm particulate organic matter (POM), and the mobile
humic acid (MHA) fractions weresequentially extracted from
agricultural soils and characterized using both 13C cross
polarization magic anglespinning nuclear magnetic resonance
(CPMAS NMR) spectroscopy and also Fourier transform ion
cyclotronresonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS). The NMR
results showed a decrease in the O-alkyl C region assignedto
carbohydrates (51–110 ppm) and an increase in the aromatic
region (111–161 ppm) proceeding from theLFOM to the POM
and then to the MHA fraction. Similarly, based on the
thousands of molecular formulaeassigned to the peaks
detected by FT-ICR-MS, condensed hydrocarbons were dominant
only in the MHA, whilealiphatic formulae were abundant in
the POM and LFOM fractions. The molecular formulae of the
LFOM andPOM were mainly grouped in the high H/C lipid-like
and aliphatic space, whereas a portion of the MHA
compoundsshowed an extremely high (17–33, average of 25)
double bond equivalent (DBE) values, corresponding tolow H/C
values of 0.3–0.6, representative of condensed
hydrocarbons. The labile components appeared mostpronounced
in the POM $(93\%$ of formulae have H/C ≥ 1.5) similar to
the LFOM $(89\%$ of formulae have H/C ≥1.5) but in
contrast to the MHA $(74\%$ of formulae have H/C ≥ 1.5).
The presence of both labile and recalcitrantcomponents in
the MHA fraction suggests that the stability and persistence
of soil organic matter is influenced bya complex interaction
of physical, chemical, and biological factors in soil.
Understanding the composition anddistribution of different
SOM fractions can provide valuable insights into the
processes that govern carboncycling in soils, which can help
inform strategies for sustainable land management and
climate changemitigation.},
