Points to Ponder: 3GT/year increase in atmospheric C or 1.5 ppm/year. GWP(global warming potential) of CO 2 = 1 A new global C cycle model with a realistic CO 2 e-fold lifetime of 55 yr.(half life 38 yr.) reveals that the temp. will increase by~ C by Atmosphere has small C pool size but; large flux rates to other compartments. Geritol Fix: Artificial increase in the CO 2 absorption by fertilizing Key ocean regions. A few scientists have theorized that insufficient Fe is the only possible reason for low biological activity in southern ocean. Therefore, fertilizing it with Fe would boost population & henceforth the CO 2 absorption. Can GLOBAL GREENING be a solution for GLOBAL WARMING?

CO 2. Plants prefer C 12 over C 13 Elevated levels of CO 2 in the atmosphere benefit some plants by making them more tolerant to cold temperature.

CO 2 mobile in soil pore space. HCO 3 - mobile in soil solution.

None.

No deficiency symptoms. In case of low carbon content of the soil, excess N is absorbed by plants as nitrate which will result in slow and stunted growth.

No carbon toxicity. But; often increased carbon content in soil increases C: N ratio, thereby allowing the micro organisms to utilize the available N for break down of carbonaceous material, before plants can use that N, thus inducing a N deficiency in plants.

Macroelement required by plants, constitutes about % of dry weight of plant matter. Basic energy source and building block for plant tissues. Converted through photosynthesis into simple sugars. Used by plants in building starches, carbohydrates, cellulose, lignin, and protein.

Main food of microbial population, Utilization by microbes is closely related to C:N ratio.

The rate of CO 2 saturation concentration for leaf photosynthesis ranges between microliters CO 2 per liter of air.

None.

10:1 C: N ratio needed for stable organic matter. High C:N ratios lead to nitrogen immobilization. Low C:N ratios lead to N mineralization. N rates in excess of those required for maximum yield can lead to increased soil organic C.

Crop residues, green manures and animal wastes can be significant sources of soil organic carbon.
