Soil’s Hidden Power : The Stable Soil Organic Carbon Pool Controls the Burden of Persistent Organic Pollutants in Background Soils
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) tend to accumulate in cold regions by cold condensation and global distillation. Soil organic matter is the main storage compartment for POPs in terrestrial ecosystems due to deposition and repeated air–surface exchange processes. Here, physicochemical properties...
