Emissions from deforestation and forest degradation are obvious, but current forests can also be unstable and turn into sources, e.g. when affected by calamities, potential saturation effects (e.g. ageing forests with smaller annual sequestration rates than before), and a rather slow responding ability.
Additionally, this study discusses heat harvesting simultaneous with small scale CO2 sequestration, the way to avoid land subsidence with re-injection of the produced geofluid into the same formation and the effect of the formation dip on the ultimate heat recovery.
Necrosis en masse produced by severe infection is nearly always followed by a fibroblastic and fixed tissue phagocytic reaction which usually results in complete absorption of the dead bone, if the area is small, or in sequestration, if it is large.
