Extended Data Fig. 2: Relationships between normalized SOC stocks and soil redistribution rates for the cropland sites.
From: Temperature effect on erosion-induced disturbances to soil organic carbon cycling
Negative values of soil redistribution rates indicate erosion, while the positive values indicate deposition. The SOC stock of each soil profile is normalized by being divided by the SOC stock of the reference sites (as denoted with red asterisks) not subjected to erosion or deposition. The regression lines are set to pass through the reference value so that the sensitivity of normalized SOC stocks to the variation of soil distribution rates can be assessed by comparing the slopes of these linear regression lines. The number in parentheses denote the identification of the catchment, which is shown in Supplementary Table 1.
