Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

Abstract Purpose of Review Carbon sequestration and storage in forest ecosystems is often
promoted as a solution for reducing CO 2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Yet, our …

Urgent solutions to global climate change are needed. Ambitious tree‐planting initiatives,
many already underway, aim to sequester enormous quantities of carbon to partly …

Executive summary Land and climate interact in complex ways through changes in forcing
and multiple biophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks across different spatial and …

A substantial part of China's anthropogenic emissions has been offset by its land carbon
sink, which represents an important element in achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 1. Using …

The terrestrial biosphere absorbs about 20% of fossil-fuel CO2 emissions. The overall
magnitude of this sink is constrained by the difference between emissions, the rate of …

The global forest carbon (C) stock is estimated at 662 Gt of which 45% is in soil organic
matter. Thus, comprehensive understanding of the effects of forest management practices on …

Improved forest management (IFM) has the potential to remove and store large quantities of
carbon from the atmosphere. Around the world, 293 IFM offset projects have produced 11 …

Boreal forests are important global carbon (C) sinks and, therefore, considered as a key
element in climate change mitigation policies. However, their actual C sink strength is …

An estimated half of the carbon fixed by trees is transported belowground, a portion of which
is exuded into the soil where it fuels a complex belowground food web. The biological …
