Soil quality and carbon sequestration

Abstract

The presentation proposes the collection of a minimum dataset in order to compare soil quality improvements from conservation agriculture across the sites in the Soil Quality and Carbon Sequestration Cross Cutting Research Activity (CCRA-9). While all of the LTRA teams are conducting extensive research on soil quality, this presentation proposes standardized measurement depths for carbon sequestration across sites and highlights several technologies that may be utilized by all of the LTRA teams for standardized measurement.
