This book integrates the analyses of organic carbon and carbonate
accumulation in soil and lake sediment in a typical arid region of
China that has experienced significant climate and land-use
changes. It demonstrates that carbonate accumulation greatly
exceeds organic carbon in both soil and sediment. It also shows
that intensive cropping with sound land management in the arid land
not only increases soil organic carbon stock, but also enhances
accumulation of soil carbonate, particularly in subsoils. Carbon
accumulation in the lake sediment increased between 1950 and 2000,
after which it declined, and the authors explore how human activity
and climate change may have caused the changes in carbon burial in
the lake sediment. This book is of interest to researchers in a
number of fields such as soil science, limnology and global change,
as well as to the policy-makers.
