Soil Processes and the Carbon Cycle
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 soil quality and potential and actual carbon reserves in the soil. In addition, this book deals with modeling the carbon cycle in soil, and with methods of soil carbon determinations.

It brings together biological, economic, sociological, and technical aspects of cropping systems in a single source to provide a reference unlike any other on the subject that is available today. This valuable book also points to future directions that cropping systems research needs to take in order to increase sustainable agriculture and feed the growing world population. Charts, tables, and illustrations make the information easy to acces...
Soil Carbon Sequestration and the Greenhouse Effect
Worldwide concern about increases in greenhouse gases and their potential effects on global climate change has brought attention to what scientists are calling the missing C question. This publication delivers information on soil C sequestration in croplands, range lands, forest lands, and set-aside or CRP lands in the United States and Canada. A state-of-the-art knowledge compendium, this text will be valued by environmental scientists, and is also a well-written, accessible addition to the classroom.
