Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In this special issue, we delve into the intricate mechanisms of carbon sequestration and stabilization within forest and bamboo ecosystems, within the broader context of environmental protection and the fight against climate change. This edition offers a comprehensive analysis of carbon storage dynamics and related processes within these ecosystems, considering the influences of climate change, human interventions, and natural disturbances. The aim is to underscore the significance of effective forest management, the role of forest soil in greenhouse gas emissions, and ecosystem carbon sequestration as crucial components in mitigating climate change impacts.

Employing a multidisciplinary approach, this issue thoroughly explores diverse methods and models linked to the carbon sequestration potential inherent in forests and bamboo. Additionally, it examines their ecological implications, seeking to advance sustainable environmental practices.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Plants is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
