Overview
Forests play a crucial role in regulating carbon cycles, acting as both carbon sinks and sources depending on management practices and disturbance events. Understanding their function in carbon dynamics is vital for climate change mitigation. Carbon Sequestration in Forest Ecosystems explores the biological and ecological processes that enable forests to capture and store atmospheric carbon. The book discusses forest types, soil carbon storage, and modeling techniques for carbon accounting. It also highlights the effects of deforestation, afforestation, and sustainable management on carbon balance. Combining ecology, forestry, and environmental policy, it offers comprehensive insights into nature-based climate solutions.
