We reviewed the experimental evidence for long-term carbon (C) sequestration in soils as
consequence of specific forest management strategies. Utilization of terrestrial C sinks …

Using forests to mitigate climate change has gained much interest in science and policy
discussions. We examine the evidence for carbon benefits, environmental and monetary …

Background and aims Ecological stoichiometry plays important roles in ecosystem dynamics
and functioning, but relationships between above-and belowground stoichiometry and …

Carbon sequestration through ecological restoration programs is an increasingly important
option to reduce the rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration. China's Grain for …

Temperate and boreal forests in the Northern Hemisphere cover an area of about 2× 107
square kilometres and act as a substantial carbon sink (0.6–0.7 petagrams of carbon per …

The knowledge of tree species effects on soil organic carbon (C) turnover based on rigorous
experimental designs is limited for common European deciduous tree species. We assessed …

Ecological research networks functioning across climatic and edaphic gradients are critical
for improving predictive understanding of biogeochemical cycles at local through global …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays a critical role in the global carbon (C) cycle, and C
sequestration in forest soils can represent a C sink. A relevant question is how does SOC …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) changes associated with land conversion to energy crops are
central to the debate on bioenergy and their potential carbon neutrality. Here, the …

Abstract Changes in land use may alter land cover, which results in carbon stock changes in
biomass as well as in the soil. In China's loess plateau, vegetation restoration has been …
