Abstract Purpose of Review Carbon sequestration and storage in forest ecosystems is often
promoted as a solution for reducing CO 2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Yet, our …

Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

Agriculturally degraded and abandoned lands can remove atmospheric CO2 and sequester
it as soil organic matter during natural succession. However, this process may be slow …

Soils under natural, tropical forests provide essential ecosystem services that have been
shaped by long-term soil–vegetation feedbacks. However, deforestation of tropical forest …

Human impacts prior to the Industrial Revolution are not well constrained. We investigate
whether the decline in global atmospheric CO 2 concentration by 7–10 ppm in the late …

Land abandonment is a process widespread in many regions of the world as a
consequence of socio-economic conditions and changes on the use of land. Research has …

Enhancing and conserving carbon pools in vegetation is a major climate change mitigation
strategy. The dynamics of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems depend on processes like …

Mangroves shift from carbon sinks to sources when affected by anthropogenic land‐use and
land‐cover change (LULCC). Yet, the magnitude and temporal scale of these impacts are …

Agricultural production has replaced natural ecosystems across the planet, becoming a
major driver of carbon emissions, biodiversity loss, and freshwater consumption. Here we …
