Ch. 1. Pedospheric Processes and the Carbon Cycle / R. Lal, J. Kimble and R. Follett -- Ch. 2. Stocks and Dynamics of Soil Carbon Following Deforestation for Pasture in Rondonia / Christopher Neill, ...

In a new study published in New Phytologist on Nov. 23, Prof. Zeng Fanjiang's team from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and ...

Researchers discovered that microbes respire three times as much CO2 from lignin carbons compared to cellulose carbons. When soil microbes eat plant matter, the digested food follows one of two ...

A comparison of a test area treated with PrairieFood's micro-carbon additive on the left with conventionally grown crops on the right. This March, I introduced the term “Nature-Enhancing Solution” to ...

Microbes are by far the most important factor in determining how much carbon is stored in the soil, according to a new study with implications for mitigating climate change and improving soil health ...

Researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have uncovered how soil food ...

There’s a new agricultural commodity that farmers, food giants and grassroots groups are all rallying behind — carbon. Efforts to manage farmland for carbon capture benefits and to keep CO2 locked in ...

Image of soil with a close-up of a bacterium and the cellular pathways involved in carbon dioxide productions. Available substrates from soil organic matter are processed through specific pathways ...

A study examining the effects of higher temperatures on soil shows that warming alone does not increase levels of carbon dioxide emitted from the soil. Instead, higher temperatures combined with more ...
