In the case of terrestrial carbon sequestration in agricultural soils (by incorporation of biochar), the sequestered carbon is not only the recalcitrant, perdurable fraction of the biochar itself which should be measured (i.e. that fraction which is not labile to chemical or biological degradation.) Additional atmospheric carbon is sequestered as perdurable biomass in the form of plant matter above and below the ground and soil biota. To the extent that these forms are INCREMENTAL and ATTRIBUTABLE to the presence of the biochar they should be brought to account. I acknowledge that they are difficult to measure. QUESTION: Who is conducting what forms of work to quantify these forms of carbon sequestration?
