BIOGEOCHEMISTRY AND GLOBAL CHANGE - 6 relevant threads Guide to the 6 "sealover" (et al) threads that discuss biogeochemistry. The most relevant posts have been compiled in sequence, and the guide shows where to find them for each thread (e.g. beginning 1/3 way down on page 22) "Maximizing Carbon Sequestration in Terrestrial Agroecosystems." thread. Topics include the biogeochemistry of carbon and nitrogen cycling, the role of tannins (aka polyphenols) as regulators of plant-litter-soil interactions, symbiosis between plants and mycorrhizal fungi, and minimizing emission of nitrous oxide or export of nitrogen to ground water or surface water. The most relevant posts are compiled, beginning 1/3 way down on page 22. The first topic post is "Carbon Sequestration and Allelopathy in Rainforest Fern Thickets." Posts with citations for peer-reviewed scientific papers related to the thread topic begin about 3/4 way down on page 22, and continue on to page 23. Every paper listed has the citation in bold letters. Every peer-reviewed scientific paper listed cites the published research of the thread author. With the exception of those several peer-reviewed scientific papers authored by the thread author himself. Including one in the journal Nature. "Geoengineering to Neutralize Ocean Acidification" thread. All the most relevant posts are compiled, beginning at the top of page 10, and continuing on to page 11. The main theme is how to better manage wetlands to enhance their output of alkalinity in submarine groundwater discharge. Alkalinity, or acid neutralizing capacity, arises from bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) and carbonate ion CO3(2-) generated as the inorganic carbon waste products of organic carbon oxidation carried out by sulfate reducing bacteria. The thread also includes extensive discussion of paleobiogeochemistry, including the origin of photosynthesis and banded iron formations. Additionally, post topics include other examples of applied biogeochemistry in environmental remediation. "What is Biogeochemistry?" thread by Duncan61 Relevant posts of this thread are compiled, beginning half way down page 3. It includes the history of the relatively new science called biogeochemistry. It also includes the research history of "sealover", as one of the first generation of scientists to be formally trained in this new interdisciplinary field of study. The biogeochemistry of "acid rain" is detailed, among other topics. "Maximizing Carbon Sequestration in Wetlands." thread. All the most relevant posts of this thread are compiled, beginning 3/4 way down page 3 and continuing on to page 4. Wetlands can and do store enormous amounts of carbon, as undecomposed organic matter buried under waterlogged, low oxygen conditions. Undisturbed wetlands take in more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis than they emit to the atmosphere through respiration and microbial decomposition. A net "sink" for atmospheric carbon dioxide. When wetlands are drained, the undecomposed organic matter is exposed to oxygen and aerobic decomposition by microorganisms. Emission of carbon dioxide increases about 50 times, a 5000% increase, compared to the undisturbed wetland. A net "source" for atmospheric carbon dioxide. A BIG one at that. "Terraforming: Is it Possible?" thread by Into the Night. The most relevant posts are compiled, beginning at the top of page 4. It includes discussion of paleobiogeochemistry and the kinds of organisms that could be used to seed life on a distant planet where there is no oxygen. PLUS ONE MORE THREAD added to guide since first post: "Rush Limbaugh Cited One of My Discoveries on His Show." thread The most relevant posts are compiled, beginning 2/3 way down on page 3, and continuing on to page 4. Multiple biogeochemistry investigations are described, including the one that Rush Limbaugh cited on his show after it was published in the journal Nature, in September, 1998. "sealover" is a PhD biogeochemist. Doctorate from UC Davis, Master's from UC Berkeley, Bachelor's from UC Santa Cruz. Author of widely-cited, peer-reviewed scientific papers about the biogeochemistry of carbon and nitrogen cycling. Including one in the journal Nature.

itn, Do you have to keep saying "Stop spamming"? It's annoying. Edited on 01-06-2024 06:13 |
