Biological Carbon Sequestration and Carbon Trading Re-Visited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Biological activities that sequester carbon create CO2 offset credits that could obviate the need for reductions in fossil fuel use. Credits are earned by storing carbon in terrestrial ecosystems and wood products, although CO2 emissions are also ...

Steady free surface flows induced by a submerged ring source or sink [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The steady axisymmetric flow induced by a ring sink (or source) submerged in an unbounded inviscid fluid is computed and the resulting deformation of the free surface is obtained.

Sensitivity of forest phenology in China varies with proximity to forest edges

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2023
Background: Shifts in forest phenological events serve as strong indicators of climate change. However, the sensitivity of phenology events to climate change in relation to forest origins has received limited attention.

Forest restoration decouple soil C:N:P stoichiometry but has little effects on microbial biodiversity globally

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, 2023
Introduction Forest restoration is an effective way to promote ecosystem functions and mitigate climate change. However, how forest restoration affect soil C:N:P stoichiometry and microbial biodiversity, as well as their linkage across contrasting forest

Urbanization alters atmospheric dryness through land evapotranspiration

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
‘Urban Dry (Wet) Islands’ (UDI/UWI) represents microclimate change that impacts ecosystems and human well-being. However, causes of the UDI (UWI) phenomena are not fully understood due to the lack of empirical data.

Aggregates reduce transport distance of soil organic carbon: are our balances correct? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The effect of soil erosion on global carbon cycling, especially as a source or sink for greenhouse gases, has been the subject of intense debate. The controversy arises mostly from the lack of information on the fate of eroded soil organic carbon (SOC ...
