Nitrogen deposition accelerates soil carbon sequestration in tropical forests

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Forest soil carbon (C) storage plays a central role in sequestrating atmospheric CO2 on timescales from centuries to millennia. However, our current understanding of soil C sequestration in response to N deposition mainly focuses on mid-to ...

Country-level potential of carbon sequestration and environmental benefits by utilizing crop residues for biochar implementation

open access: yesApplied Energy, 2021
Conversion of biomass into biofuel and biochar with a subsequent soil storage is assumed as a prospective strategy of reducing atmospheric CO2 concentrations. However, substantial uncertainties exist in this field regarding the country-level potential of

Ten golden rules for reforestation to optimize carbon sequestration, biodiversity recovery and livelihood benefits

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2020
Urgent solutions to global climate change are needed. Ambitious tree‐planting initiatives, many already underway, aim to sequester enormous quantities of carbon to partly compensate for anthropogenic CO2 emissions, which are a major cause of rising ...

“Gray Carbon” in Sewage Treatment Plants: A Neglected Carbon Sink

open access: yesOcean-Land-Atmosphere Research
This study introduces the concept of “gray carbon,” emphasizing its critical role in carbon sequestration in sewage treatment. By focusing on recalcitrant dissolved organic carbon (RDOC) in sewage effluents and its subsequent transformation in marine ...

Biochar in Carbon Sequestration

open access: yes, 2023
The increase of carbon dioxide emissions and the global warming consequences is today a considerable environmental concern. On the contrary, the rapid growth in the energy consumption throughout the world has exacerbated the CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.
