Storages of soil organic carbon and nitrogen and land use changes in China: 1990-2000
Abstract
The impacts of land use changes on soil organic carbon (SOC) and soil organic nitrogen (SON) storage have been analyzed from 1990 to 2000 in China between forest, grassland and cropland based on 2473 soil profiles and Landsat TM images from the end of 1980s to the end of 1990s. Estimation of the greenhouse gasses inventory approach suggested by IPCC indicated that the losses of SOC and SON pools were 77.6±35.2 TgC (Tg = 106 t) and 5.6±2.6 TgN …
