“…Increasing plant C inputs include cover crops, and improved crop rotations; decreasing loses include reducing tillage intensity with no-tillage providing the lowest soil disturbance (Lal 2004b;Post et al 2004;Smith et al 2008). Kukal et al (2009) reported the SOC sequestration in relation to organic and inorganic fertilization in rice-wheat and maize-wheat systems and Suman et al (2009) also reported carbon sequestration in sugarcane under different organic amendment practices ( Fig. 2a, b).…”

Soil carbon sequestration: an innovative strategy for reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration

Global warming due to increasing greenhouse gases emission and the subsequent climatic changes are the most serious environmental challenges faced by environmental scientists, academicians, regulatory agencies and policy makers worldwide. Among the various greenhouse gases, CO 2 constitutes a major share and its concentration is increasing rapidly. Therefore, there is perhaps an urgent need to formulate suitable policies and programs that can firmly reduce and sequester CO 2 emissions in a sustainable way. In order to combat the predicted disaster due to rising CO 2 level, several CO 2 capture and storage technologies and medium are being widely pursued and deliberated. Among them soil carbon sequestration (SCS) is gaining global attention because of its stability and role in long-term surface reservoir, natural low cost and eco-friendly means to combat climate change. Apart from the carbon capturing, the process of soil carbon stabilization also provides other tangible benefits that includes achieving food security, by improving soil quality, wasteland reclamation and preventing soil erosion. The present article aimed to address all these concerns and provide strategies and critical research needs to implement SCS as a mitigation option for increasing atmospheric CO 2 level and its future directions.

“…Fertilization can directly or indirectly change the physical, chemical, and microbial properties of the soil and, thus, alter soil productivity (Blair et al, 2006;Suman et al, 2009;Dong et al, 2016;Serrano et al, 2017). Long-term field experiments can be used to measure changes in soil quality under different fertilization management and predict fertilizer requirement for crops and soil-environment interactions.…”

We examined the effects of three fertilization treatments (CK, NPK, and NPKM) on soil pH, soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), C/N ratio, and available nutrients [alkali extractable-N (AN), available phosphorus (AP), exchangeable K (EK)] in the plow layer (0-40 cm) in an apple orchard from 1988 to 2016 in North China, as well as the mechanisms of nitrogenous fertilizer action on soil acidification through a three-year experiment.

the rate of carbon dioxide production is commonly used as a measure of microbial activity in the soil. the traditional method of co 2 determination involves trapping co 2 in an alkali solution and then determining co 2 concentration indirectly by titration of the remaining alkali in the solution. this method is still commonly employed in laboratories throughout the world due to its relative simplicity and the fact that it does not require expensive, specific equipment. however, there are several drawbacks: the method is timeconsuming, requires large amounts of chemicals and the consistency of results depends on the operator's skills. with this in mind, an improved method was developed to analyze co 2 captured in alkali traps, which is cheap and relatively simple, with a substantially shorter sample handling time and reproducibility equivalent to the traditional titration method. A comparison of the concentration values determined by gas phase flow injection analysis (gpfIA) and titration showed no significant difference (p > 0.05), but gpfIA has the advantage that only a tenth of the sample volume of the titration method is required. the gpfIA system does not require the purchase of new, costly equipment but the device was constructed from items commonly found in laboratories, with suggestions for alternative configurations for other detection units. furthermore, gpfIA for co 2 analysis can be equally applied to samples obtained from either the headspace of microcosms or from a sampling chamber that allows co 2 to be released from alkali trapping solutions. the optimised gpfIA method was applied to analyse co 2 released from degrading hydrocarbons from a site contaminated by diesel spillage.Index terms: co 2 , microbial respiration, titration, infrared, fIA.(1) received for publication in february 17, 2011 and approved in november 30, 2011.
