Carbon Sequestration in Turfgrass–Soil Systems
Plants are key components of the terrestrial ecosystem carbon cycle. Atmospheric CO2 is assimilated through photosynthesis and stored in plant biomass and in the soil. The use of turfgrass is expanding due to the increasing human population and urbanization.

Soil carbon sequestration by root exudates
Root exudates are well-known 'labile' sources of soil carbon that can prime microbial activity. Recent investigations suggest that the stability of labile carbon inputs in soil mostly depends upon the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the surroundings.

Attention has been paid to the application of biochar in the remediation of heavy metal contamination in soils. In this study, two modification methods, bleaching and activation, were used to enhance the biochar sorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II).

As an effective soil amendment, biochars require a comprehensive ecological evaluation before they can be widely used in agriculture because endogenous contaminants, such as environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs), certainly pose an ecological ...

Mathematical models are essential for integrating different processes that control rates of soil C dynamics and for assessing C sequestration and related climate benefits. Many models have been proposed in the literature to predict C stocks and fluxes, with no overall consensus on the best model that can provide relevant insights at a large range of ...

Adsorption of Pb(Ⅱ) by cuttlebone-derived materials and its stability [PDF]
This work mainly studied the Pb(Ⅱ) adsorption properties of cuttlebone-derived materials and the effects of adsorption time, initial solution concentration, and material aging. Cuttlebone is a fishery waste, which is mainly composed of calcium carbonate,

Natural abundance of the stable isotope (δ13C and δ15N) in plants is widely used to indicate water use efficiency (WUE). However, soil water and texture properties may affect this relationship, which remains largely elusive.

Soil carbon sequestration by agriculture
Net soil carbon sequestration on agricultural lands could offset 4% of annual global human-induced GHG emissions over the rest of the century and make an important contribution to meeting the targets of the Paris Agreement. To harness this potential of the agricultural sector to positively contribute to the sustainability agenda, a package of policies ...
