Previous reviews on carbon sequestration under perennial energy crops include some unrelated to soil organic carbon, some without experimental evidence, and some focused on specific geographical regions.
“Although there have been previous reviews on C sequestration under PECs [8–11], some of these were either unrelated to SOC [12, 13], or did not report any experimental evidence [1, 14, 15], or focused on specific geographical regions [16].”

Under switchgrass, a large number of studies showed sequestration rates that were similar but higher on average.
“Under switchgrass, a large number of studies [8, 9, 47, 57, 75, 77, 137, 138] showed sequestration rates, which were similar (Table 3) but higher on average (Fig. 4).”

For PEC systems, the evidence base is too sparse to model process dynamics or predict a state of equilibrium.
“For PEC systems, the evidence base is still emerging and is too sparse to model the process dynamics, let alone to predict a state of equilibrium [8].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
