to be met by a carpet of humus and percolate into the soil. Even today, in dense broadleaf forests, there is very little run-off during the heaviest rainfall. The important point that the ancients ...

For degraded and monoculture forests, broadleaf tree species were selected for intercropping ... These improvements have enhanced water-holding capacity and promoted soil conservation, biodiversity ...

Ecologists examined the distribution patterns of canopy soils, and their soil properties, across Costa Rican forests. The researchers suggest canopy soil may store more carbon than previously thought.

The elucidation of forest age and bedrock effects on the soil PhytOC accumulation will be essential to estimate the phytolith carbon sequestration capacity of bamboo forests and for bamboo forest ...

The soils of northern forests are key reservoirs that help keep the carbon dioxide that trees inhale and use for photosynthesis from making it back into the atmosphere. The soils of northern ...
