Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil

Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Agricultural activities considered responsible for an increase in CO2 levels in our atmosphere include: deforestation, biomass burning, tillage and intensive cultivation, and drainage of wetlands. However, agriculture can also be a solution to the problem in which carbon can be removed from the atmosphere and permanently sequestered into the soil. This volume is one of three addressing the importance of soil processes in the global carbon cycle. Management of Carbon Sequestration in Soil highlights the importance of world soils as a sink for atmospheric carbon, and discusses the impact of tillage, conservation reserve programs (CRP), management of grasslands and woodlands, and other soil and crop management and land use practices that lead to carbon sequestration.
