Fig. 1. Seasonal mean CO2 evolution rates (a) and specific mineralization rates of soil organic carbon (RESPsp) (b) from no-tillage (NT) and conventional-tillage (CT) soils in DeKalb, Monmouth (from Yoo and Wander, 2006), and Perry, IL. If the letters above data from each location are not the same, then means were significantly different at P < 0.05.

Fig. 2. Effect of conventional (CT) and no-tillage (NT) practices on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration on an equivalent volume basis in the 0- to 30-cm depth. If the uppercase letters above data are not the same, then site-based means were significantly different at P < 0.05. Means with different lowercase letters are significantly different at P < 0.05 within each site.
