Inhaltsangabe

Explore how carbon moves through forests, oceans, and soils—and why it matters for climate.

This book gathers key findings from a Brookhaven Symposium, focusing on the global carbon cycle and the roles of living and nonliving carbon pools. It discusses how detritus, humus, and other organic matter are measured, modeled, and interpreted to reveal the world’s carbon picture.

- Understand detritus pools, sampling challenges, and the importance of deep soil carbon.
- Learn how particulate and dissolved organic carbon in oceans are defined, measured, and compared.
- See how carbon-cycle models help predict changes and guide research efforts.
- Review practical research recommendations, including satellite surveillance ideas for land-use and productivity.

Ideal for readers of environmental science, ecology, and climate research seeking a concise, field-informed view of carbon in the biosphere.
