SEQUESTRATION OF CARBON BY SOIL
Soil Science, 2001Soil carbon is a major component of the terrestrial carbon cycle. The soils of the world contain more carbon than the combined total amounts occurring in vegetation and the atmosphere. Consequently, soils are a major reservoir of carbon and an important sink.

The impact of carbon geological sequestration
Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2009Abstract Although CO2 geological sequestration is the most popular carbon storage method promoted and pilot tested, the economic feasibility and technical risks for commercial scale sequestration projects are rarely mentioned. More significant is that, apart from rhetorical pronouncements, the would-be impact of the operation on climate ...

Potential for Carbon Sequestration in the Drylands
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution, 1993Non-forested drylands occupy 43% of the world’s land surface yet they are not currently regarded as important in sequestering carbon due to overuse and poor management. Seventy percent of drylands have already undergone moderate to severe desertification and an additional 3.5% drops out of economic production each year.

Carbon sequestration and forest management.
CABI Reviews, 2007Abstract Forest management has the potential to increase the terrestrial C pool. According to the rules of the Kyoto Protocol and of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, forestry can generate a sink for greenhouse gases that can contribute to meeting the national commitment to emissions ...

AbstractWhile traditionally ecology textbooks only discuss the short-term carbon cycle, the role of life has been crucial in the geological long-term carbon cycle through silicate weathering. Arguments have been put forward for the co-evolution of CO2 levels and terrestrial plants—with adaptations to lower CO2 levels allowing large leaves to evolve. It

Global Carbon Cycle and Carbon Sequestration
1995The concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will probably double at a timescale of a few human generations. This increase may induce climatic changes that will exceed the adaptive capacity of nature, and indeed of the human society. The intensification of the otherwise beneficial natural greenhouse effect has become a cause of concern ...

Carbon sequestration in European croplands
2004The Marrakech Accords allow biospheric carbon sinks and sources to be included in attempts to meet emission reduction targets for the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. Forest management, cropland management, grazing land management, and re-vegetation are allowable activities under Article 3.4 of the Kyoto Protocol.

Carbon Sequestration in Dryland Ecosystems
Environmental Management, 2003Drylands occupy 6.15 billion hectares (Bha) or 47.2% of the world's land area. Of this, 3.5 to 4.0 Bha (57%-65%) are either desertified or prone to desertification. Despite the low soil organic carbon (SOC) concentration, total SOC pool of soils of the drylands is 241 Pg (1 Pg = petagram = 10(15)g = 1 billion metric ton) or 15.5% of the world's total ...
