A Methodological Investigation of Cost of Carbon Sequestration [PDF]

Increased attention by policy makers to the threat of global climate change has brought with it considerable attention to the possibility of encouraging the growth of forests as a means of sequestering carbon dioxide.

Carbon Sequestration in Agricultural Soils [PDF]

Although it is common to alternate between till and no-till practices, past research has considered farmers’ tillage options to be limited to the dichotomous choice of whether or not to switch to a long-term no-till regime.

Rhodium Tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphine (THP)/Amine Complexes as Stable Effective Homogenous Hydrogenation Catalysts in Aqueous Solution

Inorganics
Green chemistry, achieved by using water as a reaction medium, has several potential applications. In this work, a number of water-soluble Rh(III)–THP complexes, [Rh(III)Cl3(OH)(THP)2]− (1), [Rh(III)Cl2(OH)(THP)3] (2), [Rh(III)Cl(OH)(THP)4]+ (3), [Rh(III)

Trading Water for Carbon with Biological Carbon Sequestration

Science, 2005
Carbon sequestration strategies highlight tree plantations without considering their full environmental consequences. We combined field research, synthesis of more than 600 observations, and climate and economic modeling to document substantial losses in stream flow, and increased soil salinization and acidification, with afforestation.

Carbon Sequestration, Co-Benefits, and Conservation Programs [PDF]

Land use changes to sequester carbon also provide ﾓco-benefits,ﾔ some of which (for example, water quality) have attracted at least as much attention as carbon storage. The non-separability of these co-benefits presents a challenge for policy design.

A bio-photovoltage soil-microbe battery for antibiotic degradation in the dark

Environmental and Biogeochemical Processes
Solar energy sustains biogeochemical functions in soils. However, its utilization in saturated subsurface zones remains constrained by limited light penetration. In this study, it was revealed that iron mineral-Bacillus megaterium (B.

Managing woody bamboos for carbon farming and carbon trading

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2015
Research on identifying cost-effective managed ecosystems that can substantially remove atmospheric carbon-dioxide (CO2) while providing essential societal benefits has gained momentum since the Kyoto Protocol of 1997.

Carbon Sequestration Capacity of The Forest

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2018
The potential of forest carbon sink in the next 50 years is predicted by using the ninth inventory data of forest in Shanxi Province under the background of the forest resource utilization trends and business models in recent years. The method of the volume derived biomass is used, and the natural and artificial forest is distinguished.

Carbon Sequestration in Agriculture: an Offset Program versus Other Conservation Programs [PDF]

In this paper, we study the social efficiency of private carbon markets that include trading in agricultural soil carbon sequestration when there are significant co-benefits (positive environmental externalities) associated with the practices that ...
