Changes in Mangrove Carbon Stocks and Exposure to Sea Level Rise (SLR) under Future Climate Scenarios

open access: yes, 2022
Mangrove ecosystems are threatened by a variety of anthropogenic changes, including climate change. The main aim of this research is to quantify the spatial variation in the different mangrove carbon stocks, aboveground carbon (AGC), belowground carbon ...

Storing carbon in soil. Can we slow a revolving door? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There is no doubt that soils are a vast store of carbon and partially control the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere. Maintaining soil organic matter is also crucial for production and environmental protection.

Forest Carbon Stock Assessment of the Musk Deer National Park, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK)

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Forestry and Environment, 2017
To tackle with the increasing challenges of climate change, forests are considered as a viable option. Schemes such as Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation Plus (REDD+) are regarded as financial ventures for not only tackling ...

Predicted soil organic carbon stocks and changes in Kenya between 1990 and 2030

open access: yes, 2007
Under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Non-Annex 1 countries such as Kenya are obliged to report green house gas (GHG) emissions from all sources where possible, including those from soils as a result of changes in land

Ecosystem‐scale carbon allocation among different land uses: implications for carbon stocks in the Yellow River Delta

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
The reclamation area of the Chinese Yellow River Delta (YRD) has experienced frequent land use changes in recent decades. The consequence of such land use changes on the stocks and allocation of ecosystem‐scale carbon is not known.

Long-Term Temporal Variation of Land Use Transition on Soil Carbon Stocks in Mediterranean Karst Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes
Accelerating urbanization and unplanned excessive human pressure are increasing changes in major land use. These transitions cause long-term negative transformations in rural systems.

Different topographic and climatic contexts associated carbon hotspots in a carbon‐dense ecoregion

open access: yesEcosphere
Forested landscapes have the potential to help offset global carbon emissions. However, current global models do not, nor are they intended to, capture the fine‐scale variability of the distributions of carbon in aboveground or belowground stocks or ...
