Soil Management and Climate Change: Effects on Organic Carbon, Nitrogen Dynamics, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions provides a state of the art overview of recent findings and future research challenges regarding physical, chemical and biological processes controlling soil carbon, nitrogen dynamic and greenhouse gas emissions from soils. This book is for students and academics in soil science and environmental science, land managers, public administrators and legislators, and will increase understanding of organic matter preservation in soil and mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. Given the central role soil plays on the global carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles and its impact on greenhouse gas emissions, there is an urgent need to increase our common understanding about sources, mechanisms and processes that regulate organic matter mineralization and stabilization, and to identify those management practices and processes which mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, helping increase organic matter stabilization with suitable supplies of available N. Provides the latest findings about soil organic matter stabilization and greenhouse gas emissions Covers the effect of practices and management on soil organic matter stabilization Includes information for readers to select the most suitable management practices to increase soil organic matter stabilization

Wildfire and erosion are major perturbations to the global carbon cycle in dynamic, fire-affected ecosystems around the world, including temperate forest ecosystems in the Sierra Nevada. As a byproduct of fires, pyrogenic carbon (PyC) is formed due to incomplete combustion of biomass. PyC constitutes an important component of the soil carbon pool and has been noted for its long residence time in soil and its susceptibility to erosion. As part of my dissertation research, I determined the rate of PyC, bulk soil carbon, and other soil constituents erosion after two wildfires: the Gondola Fire that occurred in South Lake Tahoe in 2002, and the Rim Fire that affected parts of Yosemite National Park in 2013. I found significant and preferential erosion of PyC, and vertical mobilization of PyC down into the soil profile after the fires. The preferential erosion of PyC, and overall quality of the soil and eroded sediments were controlled by burn severity, with PyC from higher burn severity sites being more preferentially eroded. To assess the fate of PyC post-fire in dynamic landscapes, I incubated chars formed at different temperatures in soils from eroding and depositional landform positions. Both charring temperature and landform position played significant roles in controlling soil respiration, with the lower temperature chars and the soil from the depositional landform position having much higher respiration than higher temperature chars and the soil from the eroding landform position. The difference in breakdown rates of PyC in soil from different landform positions demonstrates the importance of considering landform position as a control on PyC persistence in soil and that the interaction between charring temperature and landform position plays a significant role in the persistence of PyC. The post-fire erosional transport of PyC may act in a feedback to enhance or decrease overall PyC and bulk carbon stocks in soil. In a modeling exercise, I showed that explicit consideration for erosional loss (from eroding slope positions) and depositional gain (in lower-lying depositional landform positions) of PyC in soil can have its mean residence time in soil. I found that ignoring the role of erosional lateral distribution on PyC dynamics can introduce error in estimated turnover times of up to 150 years. Among the major accomplishments of my dissertation project include the realistic integration of biogeochemical and geomorphological approaches to derive improved representation of mechanisms that regulate soil carbon persistence in dynamic landscapes that routinely experience more than one perturbation. Findings from my dissertation research will have far reaching implications for improving our understanding of fate of terrestrial carbon after it enters streams and other aquatic systems. Furthermore, results of this project will play important role in establishing how the interaction of fire and erosion will play out under anticipated climate change scenarios, and the implications of these interactions on biogeochemical cycling of essential elements in a warmer world with intensified hydrologic cycle.

Soil organic carbon (SOC), a key component of the global carbon (C) pool, plays an important role in C cycling, regulating climate, water supplies and biodiversity, and therefore in providing the ecosystem services that are essential to human well-being. Most agricultural soils in temperate regions have now lost as much as 60% of their SOC, and as much as 75% in tropical regions, due to conversion from natural ecosystems to agricultural uses and mainly due to continuous soil degradation. Sequestering C can help to offset C emissions from fossil fuel combustion and other C-emitting activities, while also enhancing soil quality and long-term agronomic productivity. However, developing effective policies for creating terrestrial C sinks is a serious challenge in tropical and subtropical soils, due to the high average annual temperatures in these regions. It can be accomplished by implementing improved land management practices that add substantial amounts of biomass to soil, cause minimal soil disturbance, conserve soil and water, improve soil structure, and enhance soil fauna activity. Continuous no-till crop production is arguably the best example. These soils need technically sound and economically feasible strategies to sustainably enhance their SOC pools. Hence, this book provides comprehensive information on SOC and its management in different land-use systems, with a focus on preserving soils and their ecosystem services. The only book of its kind, it offers a valuable asset for students, researchers, policymakers and other stakeholders involved in the sustainable development and management of natural resources at the global level.
