Fine root dynamics have the potential to contribute to ecosystem biogeochemical cycling, especially for carbon. This is particularly true in mangroves which are the most productive and carbon-rich ...
A new study published in Ecological Processes by researchers at the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reveals that no-tillage (NT) farming could play a pivotal role in ...

The next step for the research team is to resolve a discrepancy in the amount of measured carbon the grasses were investing toward the growth of the canopy and roots, respectively, which should be ...
Conroy discovered that coastal wetlands naturally adjust their soil elevation by root growth to protect against rising sea levels, with mature mangroves storing the greatest amount of carbon in ...
“She knows how to connect people.” O’Donnell-Gower, who lives in Slatington, said she has roots in Palmerton. “Carbon is very near and dear to my heart,” O’Donnell-Gower said. “I’m proud of being from ...
The center of a tree or shrub stem (from roots to trunk, branches, and twigs) is woody, composed of xylem cells that conduct water from the roots to the upper parts of the tree. That woody section is ...
