Bruce, Thank your for your article. I enjoyed reading it.
I definitely agree with you on the need to sequester carbon in the form of biomass, both living and dead. However, I posit (at times without evidence) that biodiversity and biomass stocks are intimately related. Over long stretches of time, the diversity of life expands to fill in niches created by the presence of other forms of life. Within this increasing complexity is the opportunity for more carbon to sequestered both up the trophic pyramid and down the through a myriad of decomposers before it is again released into the atmosphere. Again, Thank you for your thoughts. Josh J. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
