Author(s): FARHATE, C. V. V.; SOUZA, Z. M. de; OLIVEIRA, S. R. de M.; TAVARES, R. L. M.; CARVALHO, J. L. N.

Soil CO2 emissions are regarded as one of the largest flows of the global carbon cycle and small changes in their magnitude can have a large effect on the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. Thus, a... ...

Author(s): SAGRILO, E.; JEFFERY, S.; HOFFLAND, E.; KUYPER, T. W.

Soil amendment with pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM), also named biochar, is claimed to sequester carbon (C). However, possible interactions between PyOM and native soil organic carbon (SOC) may accele... ...

Author(s): KEMENES, A.; FORSBERG, B. R.; MELACK, J. M.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) generated in reservoirs are released downstream of dams, and few studies have considered these downstream emissions. Fluxes downstream of 3 Amazon hydroelectric... ...
