Exact excerpt

Here we report on a large-scale (11.5 hectare) field trial ... Individual monitoring of 6400 trees over four years revealed that silicate rock amendment augmented aboveground carbon stocks by 27% in broadleaf stands only. Inoculating trees with soils from nearby mature forest tended to boost their growth, but effect sizes varied strongly among tree species and diminished through time.
