Climate‐sensitive ecosystem carbon dynamics along the soil chronosequence of the Damma glacier forefield, Switzerland

We performed a detailed study on the carbon build‐up over the 140‐year‐long chronosequence of the D amma glacier forefield, S witzerland, to gain insights into the organic carbon dynamics during the initial stage of soil formation and ecosystem development. We determined soil carbon and nitrogen contents and their stable isotopic compositions, as well as molecular‐level composition of the bulk soils, and recalcitrance parameters of carbon in...
