carbon sequestration in soil and plant biomass is the most simple and economic way for co2 decrease that is important in environment improvement. this research was done in miankaleh region of behshahr in mazandaran for comparison of carbon sequestration in different plant types. firstly, plant types were determined and dominant species was identified in each type. number and size of plots was o...

Capture and sequestration of CO2 from fossil fuel power plants is gaining widespread interest as a potential method of controlling greenhouse gas emissions. Performance and cost models of an amine (MEA)-based CO2 absorption system for postcombustion flue gas applications have been developed and integrated with an existing power plant modeling framework that includes multipollutant control techn...

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...

Climate changes and global warming are considered as very important challenges of sustainable development. Carbon sequestration is the easiest and cheapest way to reduce the greenhouse gases, especially carbon which constitutes the largest portion of them. In the present study, the potential of carbon sequestration in four plant species of Atriplex canescens, Haloxylon persicum, Artemisia siebe...

Atmospheric CO2 concentrations have increased considerably since the mid-1800s and are projected to increase even further during the coming century. This rapid increase in CO2 concentration corresponds with increases in the combustion of fossil fuel, changes in agricultural land use, and deforestation since the beginning of the industrial age. These observations have prompted scientists and pol...

desertification leads to decrease in the ecosystem c pool and attendant reduction in soil organic carbon (soc). reclamation of sandy land in arid and semi-arid has a high potential to increase carbon sequestration and improving soil quality. our objective as to examine the changes in the soil carbon sequestration and soil properties of two soil layers (0–20 and 20-50 cm) under two types of recl...

evaluation of carbon input is one of the most important factors for estimating soil carbon changes and potential for carbon sequestration. to evaluate the net primary productivity (npp) and soil carbon input in agricultural eco-systems of iran, data for yield, cultivated area, harvest index (hi) and shoot /root ratio in different crops including: wheat, barley, maize, cotton, rice, alfalfa and ...
