Apparent Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks in the Mediterranean Forest Ecosystem over a Six-Year Post-Fire Chronosequence

Mediterranean ecosystems are particularly exposed to wildfire because seasonal summer drought, high temperatures, and flammable vegetation favour fire ignition and spread. Because post-fire nutrient patterns are context dependent, this observational study compared soil organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen (N) stocks and s...
