商品描述
Terrestrial plant systems are an integral part of Earth's land resources. Resources are mutually connected via the nutrient exchange phenomena. Thus, plant nutrition is crucial in managing soil fertility and land productivity. Soil organic carbon is one of the critical indicators for assessing the viability of land, and hence soil carbon sequestration, which is a burgeoning issue regarding changing climatic conditions.
In this context, the present book provides an essential linkage between sustainable plant nutrition and soil carbon sequestration and their management strategies that lead to multidimensional benefits for environmental sustainability. The primary purpose of this book is to explore the nexus between carbon sequestration and plant growth, its role in maintaining ecosystem services, and modeling aspects of soil carbon and nutrient dynamics. Moreover, it aims to address the growing challenges of ecological perturbations, unraveling the potential of degraded lands for food, fuel, and nutritional security and accounting for meeting various UN SDGs.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
地面植物系統是地球陸地資源的重要組成部分。這些資源透過養分交換現象相互連結。因此，植物營養在管理土壤肥力和土地生產力方面至關重要。土壤有機碳是評估土地可行性的重要指標之一，因此土壤碳封存成為一個隨著氣候條件變化而日益受到關注的議題。
在這個背景下，本書提供了可持續植物營養與土壤碳封存之間的重要聯繫，以及導致環境可持續性多維效益的管理策略。本書的主要目的是探討碳封存與植物生長之間的聯繫、其在維持生態系統服務中的角色，以及土壤碳和養分動態的建模方面。此外，本書旨在應對生態擾動日益增長的挑戰，揭示退化土地在食品、燃料和營養安全方面的潛力，並考慮如何滿足各項聯合國可持續發展目標（UN SDGs）。
