Post-wildfire erosion can sculpt forested mountains

ScienceDaily: Erosion after severe wildfires can be the dominant force shaping forested mountainous landscapes of the U.S. Intermountain West, suggests a new research paper by two University of Arizona geoscientists. The study is the first to assess the impact of wildfires on such landscapes by combining several different ways to measure short-term and long-term erosion rates, said study co-author Jon Pelletier, a UA professor of geosciences. After the 2011 Las Conchas fire in New Mexico, soil and rock eroded...

In Vietnam, an urban college campus reimagined 'forested mountain'
2016-03-24 07:05:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
MNN: What schools come to mind when you think of exceptionally green college campuses -- and I mean literally green, as in lush, leafy and/or heavily forested? The nature trail-laden living laboratory of Evergreen State College? The many sylvan splendors of Lewis & Clark College? The outdoorsy wonderlands otherwise known as Berry College, Warren Wilson College and Furman University? The serene forests of, umm, Wake Forest University? Chaotic, sprawling and very heavy on the concrete, Ho Chi Minh...

Soils in newly forested areas store substantial carbon
2013-04-01 18:05:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Surface appearances can be so misleading: In most forests, the amount of carbon held in soils is substantially greater than the amount contained in the trees themselves. If you're a land manager trying to assess the potential of forests to offset carbon emissions and climate change by soaking up atmospheric carbon and storing it, what's going on beneath the surface is critical. But while scientists can precisely measure and predict the amount of above-ground carbon accumulating in a forest,...
