Abstract

Presents evidence that estimates the increases in carbon sequestration of forests which is expected to partially compensate for increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Factors that lead to the increase in atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide and the deposition of atmospheric nitrogen; Description of the experiment site; Details on the findings of the study.
