From climate-smart agriculture to climate-smart landscapes [PDF]
Agriculture & Food Security, 2012 Background For agricultural systems to achieve climate-smart objectives, including improved food security and rural livelihoods as well as climate change adaptation and mitigation, they often need to be take a landscape approach; they must become ...

Mires and Peat, 2021 Under natural conditions, peatlands store large amounts of soil organic carbon (SOC). However, they are under threat due to drainage which leads to mineralisation of soil organic matter to carbon dioxide (CO2).

Evaluation of denitrification and decomposition from three biogeochemical models using laboratory measurements of N2, N2O and CO2 [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2021 Biogeochemical models are essential for the prediction and management of nitrogen (N) cycling in agroecosystems, but the accuracy of the denitrification and decomposition sub-modules is critical. Current models were developed before suitable soil N2 flux

Hot regions of labile and stable soil organic carbon in Germany – Spatial variability and driving factors [PDF]
SOIL, 2018 Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels can be mitigated by sequestering carbon in the soil. Sequestration can be facilitated by agricultural management, but its influence is not the same on all soil carbon pools, as labile pools with a high turnover may be

Deforestation for agriculture leads to soil warming and enhanced litter decomposition in subarctic soils [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2023 The climate-change-induced poleward shift of agriculture could lead to enforced deforestation of subarctic forest. Deforestation alters the microclimate and, thus, soil temperature, which is an important driver of decomposition.

Soil organic carbon stocks are systematically overestimated by misuse of the parameters bulk density and rock fragment content [PDF]
SOIL, 2017 Estimation of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks requires estimates of the carbon content, bulk density, rock fragment content and depth of a respective soil layer.

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2023 Climate change influences agriculture in sub Saharan Africa. The climate-smart agriculture approach is emerging as a new paradigm for adapting agriculture to the changing climate and mitigation. The main aim of this review was to assess the climate smart
