Abstract:   (7821 Views)

Global warming caused by emissions of carbon gases into the atmosphere is a serious threat to sustainable development in developing countries Such as Iran. Carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystem is a sustainable approach, with no environmental risks. This research was conducted to assess its impacts on relieving climate change effects. Soils have a good capability in storing carbon. Herein this research, carbon sequestration was assessed in Sorkhehhesar Jajrud. Cupresus arizonica, pinus eldarica and rangeland plants were cut dried and sent to laboratory. Meanwhile soil samples were taken and sent to lab too. Based on random systematic statistical method, 6- 10 sampling plots of 10 x 10 m. size were allocated for each species at planted and unplanted (control) parts, separately. Soil sampling was made in center of each plot at 0-20cm depth after removing the organic layer of the soil surface to measure carbon sequestration, N, P, K, pH, moisture, bulk density, silt, sand, clay and gravel amount. T-test was used and also Levenn test was used for two independent samples. In order to assess the normality, K-S test was used.it is a best fit test. Also in the end, LSD test was used to assess different parts of plants. It was concluded that pinus eldarica, cupressus arizonica and rangeland plants were significantly traps carbon in the soil. This is normally named as carbon sequestration. pinus eldarica and cupressus arizonica are different significantly in carbon sequestration with outside (no plant)but as for the comparison of them with range land plant there is no significant difference though the rate is much more in the first and second species.
