* TITLE: Soil - Carbon Repository or Mediator? SPEAKER: Dr. Ed Gregorich
( Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada
<http://agronomycanada.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ca7fd4410b9dab34e3ef8b381&id=3998beb9b7&e=ae8b92dffd>*,
Ottawa)
*DATE/TIME: **Friday, Sept. 25 @ 9:00 am PDT*
* SYNOPSIS: Storing carbon in soils is laudable, but viewed from a
systems perspective it may be more important to manage carbon flows rather
than storage to sustain multiple ecosystem functions. This perspective
views soil as a mediator of energy flows – a reactor or a regulator, rather
than a repository of carbon.*
*BIO: **Research scientist with Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada (Ottawa), Ed
Gregorich studies carbon and nitrogen cycling in soil. A fellow of the
Canadian and American soil science societies and adjunct professor at
Carleton University, he served on the UN International Panel on Climate
Change, and is currently editor-in-chief of the Journal of Environmental
Quality.*
