Summary: "As global atmospheric carbon concentrations continue to rise, there has been an increasing focus in the 21st century on understanding terrestrial components of the carbon cycle. This has been a major interdisciplinary research agenda and advances in remote sensing and modelling of vegetation systems have developed increasingly detailed understanding of above ground carbon cycling (Fatichi et al. 2019; Lees et al. 2018). Similarly, the storage of carbon in soils below ground has been the focus of extensive and detailed research (Wiesmeier et al. 2019). However, arguably understanding of soil carbon processes lags behind analysis of above ground systems. For example, it is notable that, in the paper cited at the top of this chapter (Bloom et al. 2016), the terrestrial carbon model that the paper applies includes significant detail around the cycling of carbon through biomass, modelling carbon in leaves, roots and wood separately, whilst soil carbon represents a single store. Where more detailed models

内容説明

The first systematic examination of the role of geomorphological processes in the cycling of carbon through the terrestrial system. Argues that knowledge of geomorphological processes is fundamental to understanding the ways in which carbon is stored and recycled in the terrestrial environment Integrates classical geomorphological theory with understanding of microbial processes controlling the decomposition of organic matter Develops an interdisciplinary research agenda for the analysis of the terrestrial carbon cycle Informed by work in ecology, microbiology and biogeochemistry, in order to analyse spatial and temporal patterns of terrestrial carbon cycling at the landscape scale Considers the ways in which, as Humanity enters the Anthropocene, the application of this science has the potential to manage the terrestrial carbon cycle to limit increases in atmospheric carbon
