摘要

我们很高兴向您介绍最新的 EJSS 罗素评论 "土壤碳管理:Henry Janzen 教授撰写的 "Soil Carbon Stewardship: Thinking in Circles"(2024 年)。这篇文章是我们为庆祝 EJSS 成立 75 周年而撰写的一系列最负盛名的特邀评论中的第一篇(更多信息请参见 Dungait et al.在这篇评论中,Janzen 教授雄辩地提出了 "碳管理 "这一新术语,强调了社会与土壤碳之间的重要关系,以及以各种形式培育土壤碳的迫切需要。他提出了一个令人信服的论点,即彻底改变我们思考和谈论土壤价值的方式。随着全球变暖的影响逐渐显现,学术界内外对土壤 "碳封存 "作为一种基于自然的气候变化解决方案的热情持续高涨。土壤碳的测量、建模和绘图仍是活跃的研究领域,人们花费了大量精力来定义 "稳定碳 "及其稳定的内在机制,以便有针对性地积累土壤碳1。他建议我们不要使用 "碳封存 "一词,而代之以 "碳管理",即 "认识并重视 SOC(土壤有机碳)为土地及其所有居民带来的益处,然后代表当前和未来的其他受益者爱护这一珍贵的实体"。这需要专业知识、正直和激情,而 Janzen 教授 "完全 "具备这些条件(没有土壤科学的双关语!)。任何有幸亲眼目睹过他就土壤,尤其是土壤碳的重要性所做演讲的人,都会被他渊博的土壤科学知识和精彩的故事所感染。他的这种能力还延伸到了文字方面,十年前发表在 EJSS 上的特邀评论《碳封存之外:作为太阳能通道的土壤》(Janzen,2015 年)激发了学术界内外对碳循环的新思维。我们相信,这篇《罗素评论》将延续 Janzen 教授的灵感遗产,并向 EJSS 的读者推荐。

Introducing the Russell Review ‘Soil Carbon Stewardship: Thinking in Circles’ by H. Henry Janzen

We have pleasure in introducing the latest EJSS Russell Review ‘Soil Carbon Stewardship: Thinking in Circles’ by Professor H. Henry Janzen (2024). The article forms the first of a series of our most prestigious invited reviews commissioned to celebrate the EJSS' 75th Anniversary (for further information see Dungait et al., 2024).

The author of this Russell Review, Prof H. Henry Janzen, is one of the world's foremost and respected experts on both the science and the philosophy of soil carbon and its integral place in sustaining our future on Earth. In this review, Prof Janzen eloquently makes the case for a new term, ‘carbon stewardship’, that emphasizes the essential relationship between society and soil carbon, and the urgent need to nurture it in all its forms. He presents a compelling argument for a radical change in the way we think and talk about the value that soils have for us.

The term ‘carbon sequestration’ was coined ~40 years ago. Both within and beyond academia, excitement about ‘carbon sequestration’ in soils as a nature-based solution to climate change continues to grow as the impacts of global warming manifest. Measuring, modelling and mapping soil carbon remain active areas of research, and considerable efforts have been expended to define ‘stable carbon’ and the underlying mechanisms leading to its stabilization, in order that this can be targeted to accrue soil carbon1.

In this Russell Review, Prof Janzen argues that the benefits of soil carbon to human society go far beyond just locking it away. Rather than referring to ‘carbon sequestration’, he suggests that we replace the term with ‘carbon stewardship’ that ‘denotes recognizing and valuing the benefits that SOC [soil organic carbon] offers to land and all its inhabitants, and then caring for this treasured entity on behalf of other current and future beneficiaries of its goodness’.

The ability to communicate one's scientific research in a way that captures hearts as well as minds is an enviable skill. It takes expertise, integrity and passion, and Prof Janzen has all of these ‘in spades’ (no soil science pun intended!). Anyone who has had the privilege of witnessing in person his presentations on the importance of the soil, and soil carbon in particular, cannot help but be inspired by his depth of knowledge of soil science and the power of his mesmeric storytelling. This ability extends to the written word, and the Invited Review published in the EJSS a decade ago, ‘Beyond carbon sequestration: soil as conduit of solar energy’ (Janzen, 2015), stimulated new ways of thinking about the carbon cycle, within and beyond academia. We are sure that this Russell Review will continue Prof Janzen's legacy of inspiration and commend it to EJSS' readers.
