Effect of physiographic factors on Soil Carbon Sequestration in Kermanshah (Iran(

Some of the most important local factors on Carbon Sequestration in soil, is climate and topographic features (such as altitude, aspect and percent slope),In order to study the effect of slope aspect and elevation for Soil Carbon Sequestration took over in Kermanshah province .For this search 6 height class and 4 main slopes aspect was selected and sampling of the soil was done 0-30 cm randomly. Results showed that increasing the height increases the amount of Carbon Sequestration.Most Carbon Sequestration 73/52 tons, was at an altitude of 2100 meters in the north aspect, That is far from the grazing and human activity and vegetation growth is not limited .Results showed that the physiographic plays important role in land management order to access the Carbon Sequestration Soil Considering the physiographic and climatic conditions different management schedules including replanting species, grazing and soil protection should be considered.
