Temporal dynamics of soil organic carbon after land-use change in the temperate zone - carbon response functions as a model approach: SOIL ORGANIC CARBON AND LAND-USE CHANGE
Open accessAbstract
Land-use change (LUC) is a major driving factor for the balance of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and the global carbon cycle. The temporal dynamic of SOC after LUC is especially important in temperate systems with a long reaction time. On the basis of 95 compiled studies covering 322 sites in the temperate zone, carbon response functions (CRFs) were derived to model the temporal dynamic of SOC after five different LUC types (mean soil depth of 30±6 cm). Grassland establishment caused a long lasting carbon sink with a relative stock change of 128±23% and afforestation on former cropland a sink of 116±54%, 100 years after LUC (mean±95% confidence interval). No new equilibrium was reached within 120 years. In contrast, there was no SOC sink following afforestation of grasslands and 75% of all observations showed SOC losses, even after 100 years. Only in the forest floor, there was carbon accumulation of 0.38±0.04 Mg ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹ in afforestations adding up to 38±4 Mg ha⁻¹ labile carbon after 100 years. Carbon loss after deforestation (−32±20%) and grassland conversion to cropland (−36±5%), was rapid with a new SOC equilibrium being reached after 23 and 17 years, respectively. The change rate of SOC increased with temperature and precipitation but decreased with soil depth and clay content. Subsoil SOC changes followed the trend of the topsoil SOC changes but were smaller (25±5% of the total SOC changes) and with a high uncertainty due to a limited number of datasets. As a simple…

“The CO 2 balance of energy crops can be estimated by C stock changes in above and below ground biomass and in soils.This strongly depends on the previous land-use and former C stock levels, especially for the largest terrestrial C pool, the soil organic carbon (SOC) pool.”

In the citing paper
“Land-use types with high SOC stocks, such as grasslands on organic soils, are more susceptible to land-use change to conventional energy crops than low C systems, such as croplands on well-drained soils (Poeplau et al., 2011).”

“In general, annual cropland conversion to perennial crops results in increased SOC stocks but SOC decreased if perennial crops or grasslands are converted to annual crops (Anderson-Teixeira et al., 2009;Poeplau et al., 2011).”

“Even though there is a wide range of grassland management types, on average most grasslands store higher SOC stocks than croplands under similar site conditions (Poeplau et al., 2011).”

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.
