The influence of subdivision design and conservation of open space on carbon storage and sequestration
Cities are increasingly trying to offset carbon dioxide emissions and existing and new residential developments, or urban subdivisions, are a major source of such emissions. Compact or clustered subdivision designs have ...
Not all toxic butterflies are toxic: high intra- and interspecific variation in sequestration in subtropical swallowtails
(Ecological Society of America, 2017-12-11)
Many herbivorous insects make use of plant secondary metabolites by consuming and storing these toxic compounds in their body tissue or integument, thereby obtaining chemical defense against their natural enemies. Swallowtail ...
Carbon Sequestration in Temperate Silvopastoral Systems, Argentina
(Springer, 2017)
Carbon sequestration involves the net removal of CO2 from the atmosphere andstorage in long-lived pools of C. Such pools include the above-ground plant biomass;below-ground biomass such as roots, soil microorganisms, the ...
CO2 sequestration by pH-swing mineral carbonation based on HCl/NH4OH system using iron-rich lizardite 1T
(2018-03-01)
In pH-swing mineral carbonation, several acid/base systems has been investigated. Currently the main acid/base systems employed are HCl/NaOH and NH4HSO4/NH4OH. However, the use of a HCl/NH4OH system was not yet elucidated. ...

Ecosystem-level carbon stocks and sequestration rates in mangroves in the Cananeia-Iguape lagoon estuarine system, southeastern Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-01-01)
Mangroves fringe the coastlines of 54% of the world's nations but convey ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, that span administrative boundaries. Despite their high carbon sequestration efficiency and longterm ...
Reactive Transport Modeling of Natural Carbon Sequestration in Ultramafic Mine Tailings
(Soil Science Society of America, 2012-05)
Atmospheric CO2 is naturally sequestered in ultramafi c mine tailings as a result of the weathering of serpentine minerals [Mg3Si2O5(OH)4] and brucite [Mg(OH)2], and subsequent mineralization of CO2 in hydrated magnesium ...
