  • Recarbonization of the Biosphere

    Ecosystems and the Global Carbon Cycle

    Edited by Rattan Lal, Klaus Lorenz, Reinhard F. Hüttl, Bernd Uwe Schneider, Joachim von Braun ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Human activities are significantly modifying the natural global carbon (C) cycles, and concomitantly influence climate, ecosystems, and state and function of the Earth system. Ever increasing amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) are added to the atmosphere by fossil fuel combustion but the biosphere is a potential C sink. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of C cycling in the biosphere is crucial for ... Read more

  • Ecosystem Services and Carbon Sequestration in the Biosphere

    Edited by Rattan Lal, Klaus Lorenz, Reinhard F. Hüttl, Bernd Uwe Schneider, Joachim von Braun ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Ecological functions and human wellbeing depend on ecosystem services. Among the ecosystem services are provisional (food, feed, fuel, fiber), regulating (carbon sequestration, waste recycling, water cleansing), cultural (aesthetic, recreational, spiritual), and supporting services (soil formation, photosynthesis, nutrient cycling). Many relationships of various degree exist among ecosystem ... Read more

  • Soil Nitrogen Uses and Environmental Impacts

    Edited by Rattan Lal, B.A. Stewart ...
    Series series Advances in Soil Science
    Nitrogen (N) is potentially one of the most complex elements on the Earth. It is necessary for all biological activity, but creates negative impacts on water and air quality. There is a balancing act between deficiency and surplus and the forms of N available further complicate our understanding of the dynamics. Biological fixation provides some plants with N supply while others are totally ... Read more

  • Carbon Sequestration in Urban Ecosystems

    Edited by Rattan Lal, Bruce Augustin ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Urbanization drastically alters the ecosystems structure and functions, disrupts cycling of C and other elements along with water. It alters the energy balance and influences climate at local, regional and global scales. In 2008, urban population exceeded the rural population. In 2050, 70% of the world population will live in urban centers. The number of megacities (10 million inhabitants) ... Read more
