Soil Carbon Dynamics Following Switchgrass Establishment for Bioenergy Production in Southeastern Ontario

Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), a perennial C4 grass species, has the capacity to not only improve the quality of the soil in which it grows but also promote soil carbon storage to offset rising atmospheric CO2. This research investigated soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics beneath switchgrass using...
