Potentially mineralizable C and N About 1-5% of organic C and total N Quantities of organic C and N released by indigenous soil microflora during a laboratory incubation. Values are the result of an integration of physical, chemical and microbiological properties of the soil. Indicator of the N fertility of soils and their ability to supply N to crops. 

In addition to this book, volunteered papers presented at ISMOM2004 and accepted after rigorous external review was published as a special issue by the international journal Biology and Fertility of Soils. This special issue serves a companion volume of this IUSS- and IUPAC-sponsored book published by Springer-Verlag.
