Roles of fire history and rewetting in peatland restoration and vegetation recovery on the Merang peat dome, South Sumatra, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2023
In the restoration of drained and degraded tropical peat swamp forest (PSF) it is not well understood whether fire suppression on its own is sufficient to facilitate regeneration, or if rewetting plays a key role.

A process-based model for quantifying the effects of canal blocking on water table and CO2 emissions in tropical peatlands [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Drainage in tropical peatlands increases CO2 emissions, the rate of subsidence, and the risk of forest fires. To a certain extent, these effects can be mitigated by raising the water table depth (WTD) using canal or ditch blocks. The performance of canal

Sequestering carbon in natural forests [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, 1997
Abstract Closed forests cover about 3 billion hectares, or 20% of the world's total land area (excluding Antarctica). Forest plantations comprise less than 1% of this area. Natural forests range from the intensively managed ones of Central Europe and Scandinavia to the wild boreal forests of Russia and Canada and the deep jungles and dry forests of the

Forest Carbon Sequestration: The Impact of Forest Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this chapter, we describe alternative ways in which forests and forestry can help to mítigate climate change, along with the potential impact of these activities. The three carbon storage compartments should be considered inall impact estimates.

Carbon Sequestration Capacity of The Forest

open access: yesChemical 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.

Effect of 26 Years of Intensively Managed Carya cathayensis Stands on Soil Organic Carbon and Fertility

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Chinese hickory (Carya cathayensis), a popular nut food tree species, is mainly distributed in southeastern China. A field study was carried out to investigate the effect of long-term intensive management on fertility of soils under a C.
