carbon-sequestration
Carbon sequestration is the natural process by which plants capture and store atmospheric carbon dioxide in biological tissue and soil. This is central to plant science because plants are the primary agents of this process through photosynthesis, and understanding how different species and ecosystems sequester carbon is essential for managing the global carbon cycle and addressing climate change.
