Soil Carbon stocks and their rates of accumulation and loss in a boreal forest landscape

Boreal forests and wetlands are thought to be significant carbon sinks, and they could become net C sources as the Earth warms. Most of the C of boreal forest ecosystems is stored in the moss layer and in the soil. The objective of this study was to estimate soil C stocks (including moss layers) and rates of accumulation and loss for a 733 km 2 area of the BOReal Ecosystem‐Atmosphere Study site in northern Manitoba, using data from smaller‐scale...
