Typically, black carbon accounts for 1 to 6%, and up to 60% of the total organic carbon stored in soils is contributed by black carbon. Especially for...

In Canada's boreal forests as much as 80% of the total carbon is stored in the soils as dead organic matter.[globalize] The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report...

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is a process in which carbon dioxide (CO2) is removed from the atmosphere by deliberate human activities and durably stored...

aggregation can physically protect organic carbon from decay by soil microbes. More aggregate formation can result in more soil carbon storage. There is much evidence...
