Winter forest soil respiration controlled by climate and microbial community composition
Article Abstract:
A study of the effect of changes in snow cover on soil carbon cycling within the context of natural climate variation is illustrated. It suggests that a warmer climate may change soil carbon sequestration rates in forest ecosystems owing to changes in the depth of the insulating snow cover.

High-energy career lines
Article Abstract:
The demand for renewable sources of energy such as wind, sun, biofuels are increasing as the supplies of fossils fuels are depleting. The European Union (EU) by 2020 is aiming to obtain about 20% of its energy from renewable resources.

The long-term carbon cycle, fossil fuels and atmospheric composition
Article Abstract:
The effects on the long term carbon cycle has been discussed in detail. This long-term carbon cycle involves the exchange of carbon between rocks and the earth's surface.
