Global change: Carbon in idle croplands
Geoffrey M. Henebry1
Abstract
The collapse of the Soviet Union had diverse consequences, not least the abandonment of crop cultivation in many areas. One result has been the vast accumulation of soil organic carbon in the areas affected.
The formal dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991 triggered the most widespread and abrupt episode of land change in the twentieth century. The institutional changes produced socio-economic dislocation throughout the former Soviet Union and its client states.
