Keen public interest in soil carbon sequestration will test the scientific community’s ability to deliver effective soil management practices and durable scientific concepts. In this webinar series we will hear diverse perspectives on key questions that inform how to go about sequestering soil carbon in working lands.

In our first webinar of 2022, “Erosion,” Dr. Kristof Van Oost (Université Catholique de Louvain, Belgium) will share his research to quantify the impacts of erosion on C-cycling at the global scale. Dr. Ken Wacha (USDA-ARS National Soil Erosion Laboratory) will discuss how management and landscape processes in the US Corn Belt increase the spatial heterogeneity of soil carbon stocks and promote yield gaps.

This series is sponsored by the International Soil Carbon Network in partnership with the Midwest, Northeast, and Northwest USDA Climate Hubs, the American Geophysical Union, and the tri-societies–the American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America.
