Plant diversity drives soil carbon sequestration: evidence from 150 years of vegetation restoration in the temperate zone

Large-scale afforestation is considered a natural way to address climate challenges (e.g., the greenhouse effect). However, there is a paucity of evidence linking plant diversity to soil carbon sequestration pathways during long-term natural restoration of temperate vegetation. In particular, the ca...
