We want to thank both referees for their efforts with reviewing this manuscript. Their comments and suggestions helped us to improve the paper and make it more clear, focused on the problem, and well-structured. All our responses to reviewers’ comments are posted in the individual replies. We also made some improvements in figures and added several tables for the better representation of simula...

Interactive comment on “Comparative analysis of the influence of climate change and nitrogen deposition on carbon sequestration in forest ecosystems in European Russia: simulation modelling approach” by A. S. Komarov and V. N. Shanin

line 8, do you mean stable climate, i.e. climate without annual variation? or have you simulated stand development in ambient climate? line 9, specify how many or which levels of nitrogen deposition were analyzed Introduction first three lines are very generic without specific meaning; thus, can be deleted. lines 18-20, meaning of the second sentence is unclear. I mean that last part of it ‘. ....

Monitoring and assessment of land use/land cover changes in Kashkan basin using futures studies approach in managing ecosystem services

Land use/cover change is one of the main factors in environmental changes. The changes directly affect the value of ecosystem services. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect of land use/land cover change in the Kashkan area on its ecosystem services. This research was carried out in three stages, including the analysis of land cover changes, prediction of changes, and carbon st...

Comparison of Carbon and Nitrogen Sequestration in Soils Under Plantations, Natural Forest and Agricultural Farm Land Uses in Arjan Plain in the Fars Province

The carbon sequestaration by plants and soil is one of the easiest and the most econimical ways to reduce atmosphere carbon. This study was conducted on the planted land use of Fraxinus rotundifolia, Cupressus arizonica, obinia pseudoacacia L., Elaeagnus angustifolia, Cedrus libani, and Quercus brantii (persica) in the Arjan plain of Fars province. For each plantation land use, there were three...
