Journal ArticleDOI
Soil carbon sequestration and land‐use change: processes and potential
Wilfred M. Post,K. C. Kwon +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the essential elements of what is known about soil organic matter dynamics that may result in enhanced soil carbon sequestration with changes in land-use and soil management are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil carbon pools and world life zones
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of 2,700 soil profiles, organized on a climate basis using the Holdridge life-zone classification system, indicates relationships between soil carbon density and climate, a major soil forming factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil organic carbon sequestration rates by tillage and crop rotation : A global data analysis
Tristram O. West,Wilfred M. Post +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify potential soil organic carbon sequestration rates for different crops in response to decreasing tillage intensity or enhancing rotation complexity, and to estimate the duration of time over which sequestration may occur.
Journal Article
The global carbon cycle.

Journal ArticleDOI
New Computer Models Unify Ecological TheoryComputer simulations show that many ecological patterns can be explained by interactions among individual organisms
TL;DR: First, models often combine many individual organisms and assume that they can be described by a single variable, such as population size, which violates the biological principle that each individual is different, with behavior and physiology that result from a unique combination of genetic and environmental influences.
