Cement kiln dusts exhibit the greatest sequestration potential, with 4% CO2 sequestration by mass.
In general, the metals most depleted from the acidified surface soil materials exhibited the greatest sequestration in the surface soil materials of the tidally remediated site.
The findings highlight the role of BSCs in future carbon budgets by enabling greater sequestration into dryland soils even under enhanced atmospheric CO2 concentrations, following both light and heavy rainfall events.
Greater sequestration with respect to Pu V) (up to 97%) as compared to Np V) (up to 60%) was demonstrated for samples of silica gel coated with HA and HQ, whereas sorption of both actinides on pure silica gel did not exceed 20%.
Rather, restricted translocation of Cd to the shoots in the low grain-Cd isoline may be attributable to greater sequestration of Cd in the root symplasm.
A lack of effect of PCB-153 may have resulted from greater sequestration of this more-lipophilic PCB in the triacylglycerol droplet of the adipocyte, leaving less PCB-153 available to act at adipocyte target proteins.
The urinary urea concentration and urinary osmolality increased in wild-type mice after the urea load, with a slight increase in urine flow rate, which was probably due to greater sequestration of urea in the inner medulla.
Considering the sum of timber harvest and forest carbon storage levels, the volume strategy scenario with 3.96 tC/ha per year has the greatest sequestration impact; the value strategy and carbon storage strategy scenarios differed only slightly (3.14 tC/ha and 3.29 tC/ha per year, respectively).
Although carbon density of karst forests was significantly lower than that of the forests on non-karst habitats in the same latitudinal zone, the degraded karst vegetation showed a great carbon sequestration potential due to the large distribution area in southwestern China.
Finally, afforestation and reforestation on the scale envisioned here would lower terrestrial albedo in these areas, potentially blunting the cooling impact of greater carbon sequestration [38].
