C sequestration Tag

मिट्टी में बायोकर और मायकोर्हाइज़े की परस्पर क्रिया Agricultural intensification transfer carbon (C) to the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2), thereby reducing ecosystem C pools. Agriculture contributes 10–12% of the total global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Diminishing increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere by pyrolysis to convert biomass into biochar, which stabilizes the carbon (C) that is then applied to soil. Biochar withhigh concentrations of carbon that can be rather recalcitrant to decomposition, it stably sequestercarbon. The immediate beneficial effects of biochar additions for nutrient availability are largely due to higher potassium, phosphorus, and zinc availability, and to a lesser extent, calcium and copper. The presence of biochar in the...
