Two processes contribute to changes of the delta C-13 signature in soil pools: C-13 fractionation per se and preferential microbial utilization of various substrates with different delta C-13 signature. These two processes were disentangled by simultaneously tracking delta C-13 in three pools - soil organic matter (SUM), microbial biomass, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) - and in CO2 efflux during incubation of 1) soil after C-3-C4 vegetation change, and 2) the reference C-3 soil.The study was done on the Ap horizon of a loamy Gleyic Cambisol developed under C-3 vegetation. Miscanthus giganteus - a perennial C-4 plant - was grown for 12 years, and the delta C-13 signature was used to distinguish between 'old' SUM (>12 years) and 'recent' Miscanthus-derived C (
