[HTML][HTML] Greenhouse gas emissions from soils—A review
C Oertel, J Matschullat, K Zurba, F Zimmermann… - Geochemistry, 2016 - Elsevier
Soils act as sources and sinks for greenhouse gases (GHG) such as carbon dioxide (CO 2),
methane (CH 4), and nitrous oxide (N 2 O). Since both storage and emission capacities may …

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 …

Changes in land use driven by urbanization impact nitrogen cycling and the microbial community composition in soils
Transition of populations from rural to urban living causes landscape changes and alters the
functionality of soil ecosystems. It is unclear how this urbanization disturbs the microbial …

Global urban reforestation can be an important natural climate solution
The climate mitigation potential of urban nature-based solutions (NBSs) is often perceived
as insignificant and thus overlooked, as cities primarily pursue NBSs for local ecosystem …

Variability of soil organic carbon stocks and soil CO2 efflux across urban land use and soil cover types
Urban soils are an important soil organic carbon (SOC) store, but soils are also a natural
source of carbon dioxide (CO 2) due to soil CO 2 efflux derived from decomposition and root …
