Percent change in the SOC steady state following a range of step changes in C inputs with a range of β values in the two-pool microbial model. The value of β depicts the strength of density-dependent microbial turnover, where β = 1 gives the widely used two-pool microbial model without density-dependence and β = 2 gives a strong density-dependence
