This study conducted incubation experiments on maize straw-derived 300/450 °C biochar, Biochar dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) extracted biochar residues and BDOC, and applied δ13C analysis to quantify biochar’s mineralization and their priming effects on native soil organic carbon in a paddy soil. The findings proved that BDOC extraction appears a feasible strategy to enhance the short-period carbon sequestration potential of biochar.
