| Popis: | In any given watershed, riparian buffer systems (RBSs) can influence terrestrial carbon (C) sequestration and potentially enhance terrestrial C sinks. This study looked at the effects of soil texture, vegetation type and age on C stock sequestration in eight RBSs located within the Grand River Watershed (GRW), southern Ontario, Canada and compared the C stock with adjacent agricultural fields. Soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks on an equivalent mass basis were significantly higher (p |
