"This is a timely and important summary of the 'state-of-the-art' understanding of soil carbon cycling led by an eminent editor with contributions from globally-respected leaders in the scientific fields of soil carbon, chemistry, biology and physics, monitoring and mapping across natural and managed rural and urban global ecosystems. It promises to provide a 'go to' contemporary reference for stakeholders who need scientific evidence to support decision-making about soil management."Professor Jennifer Dungait, University of Exeter & Scotland's Rural College (SRUC), UK; Editor-in-Chief of the ...
"This is a timely and important summary of the 'state-of-the-art' understanding of soil carbon cycling led by an eminent editor with contributions from globally-respected leaders in the scientific fields of soil carbon, chemistry, biology and physics, monitoring and mapping across natural and managed rural and urban global ecosystems. It promises to provide a 'go to' contemporary reference for stakeholders who need scientific evidence to support decision-making about soil management."Professor Jennifer Dungait, University of Exeter & Scotland's Rural College (SRUC), UK; Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Soil Science and previous Chair of the international Symposium on Soil Organic Matter (SOM2017) Soils are known to be an enormous reservoir of carbon and represent an important and dynamic part of the global carbon cycle. However, this reservoir is under constant threat due to a combination of issues, including mismanagement, climate change and intensive agricultural production which has led to depletion of soil organic carbon. Understanding and fostering soil carbon sequestration reviews the wealth of research on important aspects of soil carbon sequestration, including its potential in mitigating and adapting to climate change and improving global food security. The collection explores our understanding of carbon sequestration in soils, detailing the mechanisms and abiotic factors that can affect the process, as well as the socioeconomic, legal and policy issues that can arise as a result of this use. In its extensive exploration of soil carbon cycling and capture, the book highlights how an informed understanding of carbon sequestration in a variety of soil types can contribute to achieving a more sustainable agriculture, as well as the methods which can be implemented by farmers to optimise the process of fostering carbon in soils. Featuring contributions from international experts and edited by a world-renowned presence in the field, Understanding and fostering soil carbon sequestration will be a standard reference for researchers in crop, soil and environmental science, government and other agencies monitoring the fostering of soil carbon sequestration practices, companies providing effective measuring, reporting and verification services, as well as farmers wishing to adopt soil carbon sequestration practices on their farms. Dr Cornelia Rumpel is Director of Research in the Institute of Ecology and Environmental Sciences at the French National Research Center (CNRS) located at Sorbonne University, where she leads a team investigating the fate of organic matter in natural and managed terrestrial ecosystems, including the mechanisms determining soil organic carbon sequestration. Her work deals with temperate and tropical environments and has contributed to the change of several paradigms in this important area. She is also working with industry and at the science policy interphase providing expertise in the areas of land management and climate change.
