TEMPORAL CHANGES IN C AND N STOCKS OF RESTORED PRAIRIE: IMPLICATIONS FOR C SEQUESTRATION STRATEGIES.

The article discusses a study about the implications of carbon sequestration strategies in temporal changes in carbon and nitrogen stocks of restored prairie. This paper focuses on chronosequence approaches applied in space-for-time substitution in order to quantify the recovery of ecosystem carbon and nitrogen stocks. It gives an estimate for the potential restoration practices in carbon sequestration. Distribution in two chronosequence include long-term cultivated lands prairie restorations and remnant prairie on two related soil series.
