Forest Reburns Are Integral to Southern Europe's Disturbance Regimes
ABSTRACT Aim Fire disturbances are integral to fire‐prone landscapes of southern Europe. While evidence of changing fire frequency has been documented, the dynamics of forest reburns—defined as previously burned areas that ignite again within intervals shorter than the historical range with which forests ecologically evolved—remain largely unexplored ...

Carbon Leakage with Forestation Policies [PDF]
This paper analyzes carbon leakage due to reduced emissions from deforestation (RED). We find that leakage with RED is good because the policy induces afforestation that contributes to a further carbon sequestration. By ignoring the domestic component of

Nanodiamond–silicon nitride composites for CO2 capture technology
Abstract Innovative nanodiamond (ND)–silicon nitride polymer‐derived ceramics with different concentrations of nanocarbon phase were developed within the present work and their performance as adsorbent materials for CO2 was established. The novel preparative approach consists in the synthesis of a polysilsesquiazane in the presence of different ...

Abstract Introduction Afforestation is a key restoration strategy for mitigating land degradation and desertification in semiarid regions. However, evaluating the ecological impacts of tree species used for sustainable dryland restoration is crucial. For example, non‐native tree species may become invasive, with negative effects on native understory ...

Potential of Soils Natural Sorbents for Environmental Decontamination From 137Cs
ABSTRACT This study addresses the existing research gap concerning the lack of integrated data on the role of in situ soil components in the long‐term fixation of 137Cs under natural, protected, and non‐agricultural conditions. The contamination of ecosystems by radioactive isotopes, particularly 137Cs, represents a considerable environmental hazard ...

ECONOMICS OF SEQUESTERING CARBON IN THE U.S. AGRICULTURAL SECTOR [PDF]
Atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases can be reduced by withdrawing carbon from the atmosphere and sequestering it in soils and biomass. This report analyzes the performance of alternative incentive designs and payment levels if farmers were ...
