Soil erosion affects soil health and carbon levels, impacting the soil's ability to store carbon and release carbon dioxide. A study on eroded slopes in a hilly region found that soil microbial carbon levels increased significantly after rainy season, with higher levels in sedimentary areas. Soil erosion and deposition areas responded differently to factors like soil moisture and temperature, with microbial carbon being most sensitive to these changes. The study showed that soil erosion and seasonal variations play a key role in the distribution of soil microbial carbon on eroded slopes.
