  • The Potential of U.S. Grazing Lands to Sequester Carbon and Mitigate the Greenhouse Effect

    Edited by Ronald F. Follett, John M. Kimble ...
    Grazing lands represent the largest and most diverse land resource-taking up over half the earth's land surface. The large area grazing land occupies, its diversity of climates and soils, and the potential to improve its use and productivity all contribute to its importance for sequestering C and mitigating the greenhouse effect and other condition ...

  • Assessment Methods for Soil Carbon

    Edited by John M. Kimble, Ronald F. Follett, B.A. Stewart ...
    Since carbon sequestration in soils reduces the amount of carbon available to the atmosphere, the Kyoto Protocols have heightened interest in soil carbon pools and their effect on carbon fluxes. Assessment Methods for Soil Carbon addresses many of the questions related to the measurement, monitoring, and verification of organic and inorganic carbon ... Read more

  • Soil Carbon Management

    Economic, Environmental and Societal Benefits

    Edited by John M. Kimble, Charles W. Rice, Debbie Reed, Sian Mooney, Ronald F. Follett, Rattan Lal ...
    Better Manage Soil C for Improved Soil QualityIn the United States, soil has fueled the availability of abundant, safe food, thus underpinning economic growth and development. In the future we need to be more vigilant in managing and renewing this precious resource by replacing the nutrients and life-sustaining matter that we remove for our own needs. Taking these issues into consideration, Soil ... Read more

  • The Potential of U.S. Forest Soils to Sequester Carbon and Mitigate the Greenhouse Effect

    Edited by John M. Kimble, Rattan Lal, Richard Birdsey, Linda S. Heath ...
    Much attention has been given to above ground biomass and its potential as a carbon sink, but in a mature forest ecosystem 40 to 60 percent of the stored carbon is below ground. As increasing numbers of forests are managed in a wide diversity of climates and soils, the importance of forest soils as a potential carbon sink grows. The Potenti ... Read more

  • Global Climate Change and Tropical Ecosystems

    Edited by John M. Kimble, B.A. Stewart ...
    Tropical ecosystems - the regions between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn - play an important role in global processes, economic issues, and political concerns. In their natural state, tropical ecosystems support a large quantity of above- and below-ground biomass, and constitute a major part of the terrestrial carbon pool. Conversion of the natural ecosystem to agriculture and forestry ... Read more

  • Soil Processes and the Carbon Cycle

    Edited by Rattan Lal, John M. Kimble, Ronald F. Follett, B.A. Stewart ...
    Series series Advances in Soil Science
    World soils contain about 1500 gigatons of organic carbon. This large carbon reserve can increase atmospheric concentrations of CO2 by soil misuse or mismanagement, or it can reverse the 'greenhouse' effect by judicious land use and proper soil management. Soil Processes and the Carbon Cycle describes soil processes and their effects on the global carbon cycle while relating soil properties to ... Read more
