Clay illuviation provides a long-term sink for C sequestration in subsoils
Soil plays a key role in the global carbon (C) cycle. Most current assessments of SOC stocks and the guidelines given by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) focus on the top 30 cm of soil. Our research shows that, when considering only total quantities, most of the SOC stocks are found in this top layer. However, not all forms of SOC are equally valuable as long-term stable stores ...
متن کاملPrediction of long-term slake durability of clay-bearing rocks
A research program was conducted on different clay-bearing rocks selected from the Ilam, Sarpol-e Zahab and Tajarak regions (Iran) to predict their slaking characteristics. The new durability apparatus (nested mesh drums) separates disintegrated particles varying from > 25.4 to < 2 mm as the drums were rotated. On the basis of the particle size distribution, the disintegration ratio (DR) was us...
متن کاملTowards a Long-term Liability Framework for Geologic Carbon Sequestration
The liability regime governing geologic carbon sequestration will shape the technology’s costeffectiveness and overall attractiveness. Key cradle-to-grave issues affecting liability include choice of liability regime, mandates for corrective action in case of leakage or accident, the need for insurance, and determination of potentially responsible parties. Rather than assuming that the existing...
متن کاملCOVID-19 Intervention Scenarios for a Long-term Disease Management
Background The first outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was successfully restrained in many countries around the world by means of a severe lockdown. Now, we are entering the second phase of the pandemics in which the spread of the virus needs to be contained within the limits that national health systems can cope with. This second phase of the epidemics is expected to last until a...
