Tradeoffs Between Aboveground and Soil Carbon Accumulation Following Forestation by Schug, Jennifer Lin

“…One prevalent climate change mitigation strategy is tree planting, as trees sequester large amounts of carbon in their aboveground biomass. However, there is emerging evidence that under some conditions, soil carbon decreases following forestation, offsetting the carbon accumulated aboveground and rendering carbon sequestration efforts ineffective. …”
