Project Description: |
Three demonstration areas be established to demonstrate
low compaction surface mine reclamation techniques for carbon sequestration
through the production of high value trees.
Approximately 150-200 to acres for a total of approximately 500 acres
of new demonstration outdoor/classroom forests. The research effort will
consider the importance of understanding both the effects of species and
spoil type and handling on C sequestration and will conduct three studies
with the following objectives: |
