A new paper published by members of our group discusses the influence of catchment morphology, lithology and land use on soil organic carbon export in a Mediterranean mountain region.

Paper highlights:

• Lithology and morphometric factors control total Carbon export through soil erosion.
• Large forest cover leads to higher Carbon concentration in sediments but not to higher Carbon export.
• Morphometric factors are associated with higher variability of Carbon concentration in sediments.

The paper will freely available for 50 days from here.
