Abstract
To investigate the decomposition of hot-water-extractable soil organic matter (HWESOM) during aerobic soil incubation, we measured contents of dissolved organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) over time. Samples of four soil types with one of two fertilizer treatments were incubated at 30 ℃ for 5 months. The quantity of organic N in the HWESOM corresponded to 47〜65% of the total N mineralized during incubation. During incubation, the organic N content of the HWESOM decreased by 43〜90% and the organic C content decreased by 17〜37% of the initial contents. Assuming that the decomposition involved first-order reactions, the decomposed organic N and C had similar half-lives of several weeks. They were characterized by a low C/N ratio (3.4〜6.0), similar to that of proteins. The hydrolyzable amino acid content of the HWESOM decreased, but the amino acid composition did not change. The molecular weight distribution of the HWESOM was determined by high-performance size-exclusion chromatography with chemiluminescent N detection and VIS 420 nm: the organic N in compounds of large molecular weight (>10000 Da) and absorbance at 420 nm due to humic-acid simultaneously-decreased during incubation. Therefore, the decomposed organic matter consisted of proteins and humic-acid-like moieties.
