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 Potential of U.S. Forest Soils to Sequester Carbon and
Mitigate the Greenhouse Effect provides researchers and policy
makers with an understanding of soil processes and their relation
to carbon dynamics, as well as strategies to monitor and techniques
to measure forest soil carbon. It covers the effects of management
on soils in a wide range of forest ecosystems together with policy
options that are effective and benefit both the forest community
and the over all environment. This valuable reference provides
forest managers, urban planners, land owners, policy makers, and
the general public with guidance that will allow for a holistic
approach to land management, environmental quality, and improved
forest productivity.
