Estimation of Soil Carbon Sequestration Rate in Steppes (Case Study: Saveh Rudshur Steppes)
Since Renaissance, the natural ecosystems have fallen into a complete state ofdisarray due to the rise in the amount of carbon dioxide. Soil, the unsparing stuff, is one of themajor sources of carbon storage, and plays a paramount role in the global equilibrium ofcarbon as well as carbon sequestration. Given that Iran is benefiting from vast steppes, therate of carbon sequestration in them dese...
متن کاملIdentifying Carbon Sequestration Hotspots in Semiarid Rangelands (Case study: Baghbazm region of Bardsir city, Kerman province)
Carbon sequestration in rangeland ecosystems has been identified as a suitable strategy to offset greenhouse gas emissions that information of carbon sequestration hotspots is a good tool to improve rangeland management. Objectives for this study were to assessment potential carbon sequestration in various rangeland types, to identify carbon sequestration hotspots and to study the effective fact...
متن کاملCarbon sequestration potential in soil and stand of Nitraria schoberi L.
Arid and semi-arid lands cover around one-third of the world's terrestrial expanse and their widespread plantdistributions provide these areas with a high potential for sequestering carbon. Vegetation management for developingshrub or tree species in arid and semi-arid regions is one inexpensive and multi-purpose approach for decreasing CO2.This study assessed the potential of carbon sequestrat...
متن کاملImpact of Tillage and Crop Rotation Systems on Soil Carbon Sequestration
What is carbon (C) sequestration? Carbon sequestration can be defi ned as the capture and secure storage of carbon that would otherwise be emitted to or remain in the atmosphere. The idea is to (1) prevent carbon emissions produced by human activities from reaching the atmosphere by capturing and diverting them to secure storage, or (2) remove carbon from the atmosphere by various means and sto...
متن کاملPredicting the amount of sequestrated carbon in rangeland soil under the effect of soil sampling depth and height using the response surface methodology (RSM)
Background and objectives: Organic carbon is one of the important parameters to determine soil fertility, and production ability and is a mind index for showing soil quality, especially in dry and semi-dry lands. The rangelands are composed of about 50 % of the world's lands and have more than 33 % of carbon reservoirs on earth. Considering the ranges as the most important terrestrial ecosystem...
متن کاملThe Effect of Stocking Rate on Carbon Sequestration of Prangos ferulacea (Case Study: Gorgou Summer Rangelands, Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, Iran)
Rangelands are the most important ecosystem for carbon sequestration. Knowledge of plant response to grazing is one of important requirements for rangeland management. Stocking rate is one of main factors in destruction of the vegetation cover in rangeland ecosystems. Livestock grazing has the potential to substantially alter carbon storage in grassland ecosystem. This study examined the effect...
