Abstract Natural ecosystems store large amounts of carbon globally, as organisms absorb from the atmosphere to build large, long-lasting, or slow-decaying structures such tree bark root systems. An ecosystem’s sequestration potential is tightly linked its biological diversity. Yet when considering future projections, many models fail account for role biodiversity plays in storage. Here, we assess consequences plant loss storage under multiple climate and land-use change scenarios. We link a macroecological model projecting changes vascular richness different scenarios with empirical data on relationships between biomass. find that declines land use could lead global 7.44-103.14 PgC (global sustainability scenario) 10.87-145.95 (fossil-fueled development scenario). This indicates self-reinforcing feedback loop, where higher levels greater loss, which turn leads emissions ultimately more change. Conversely, conservation restoration can help achieve mitigation goals.

Abstract Poor seedling emergence often limits the success of direct seeding in ecological restoration. New techniques for maximising seed use efficiency and are needed to help meet global targets nature repair UN Decade on Restoration. Extruded pellets widely used agriculture represent a promising advancement seed‐based However, extruded must be optimised diverse suites native species that possess range sizes morphotypes. We investigated how mass affects performance plant seeds (total % emergence) when encapsulated designed revegetation. Two glasshouse trials were undertaken using from 30 Australian species. In Trial 1, we centre determined relationship between emergence. 2, nearer periphery whether position (central vs. peripheral) affected subset 10 small‐seeded both trials, was compared an optimal, bare‐seeded control identify any barriers encapsulation under well‐watered conditions. centrally encapsulated, generally higher controls relative pelleted seeds. predicted pellet ( R 2 = 0.32, p 0.002), such larger‐seeded tended have than smaller‐seeded encapsulating (relative centre) resulted average 28‐fold increase all For half trialled, equivalent controls. Synthesis applications : Collectively, our results demonstrate: (1) positive central‐encapsulation, (2) can significantly improved positioned periphery. Translation these findings into practice optimise outcomes with different sized nuanced germination requirements.

Societal Impact Statement Humankind is facing both climate and biodiversity crises. This article proposes the foundations of a scheme that offers tradable credits for combined aboveground soil carbon biodiversity. Multidiversity—as estimated based on high‐throughput molecular identification meiofauna, fungi, bacteria, protists, plants other organisms shedding DNA into soil, complemented by acoustic video analyses macrobiota—offers cost‐effective method captures much terrestrial Such voluntary crediting system would increase quality projects contribute funding delivering Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Summary Carbon land offsets protection have been developed to tackle challenges increasing greenhouse gas emissions loss global Unfortunately, these two mechanisms are not optimal when considered separately. Focusing solely capture—the primary goal most carbon‐focused offsetting commitments—often results in establishment non‐native, fast‐growing monocultures negatively affect soil‐related ecosystem services. Soil contributes vast proportion contains traces organisms. Here, we outline co‐crediting multi‐kingdom samples, along with remote sensing estimation as well analyses‐based monitoring macroorganisms. Combined, such could help halt incentivising industry governments account sequestration more rigorously, explicitly equitably than they currently do. In cases, this prioritise before restoration promote socially environmentally sustainable stewardship towards ‘nature positive’ future.

Assisted migration is a tree-planting method where tree species or populations are translocated with the aim of establishing more climate-resilient forests. However, this might potentially increase susceptibility trees to herbivory. Stand diversification through planting in genotypic mixtures may reduce amount damage by insect pests, but its effectiveness mitigation excess herbivory on climate-matched has seldom been explored. Using Climate Match Experiment which manipulates both climatic provenance and stand diversity, we compared growth, leaf traits pedunculate oaks (Quercus robur) local Italian provenances monocultures, mixtures. Additionally, investigated whether apparency light availability cause variation tested these factors were influenced diversity. We found that subject greater herbivore than those English regardless diversity was higher apparent trees. also had lower concentrations hydrolysable tannins oaks, tannin poor predictors show trait strongly associated differences availability.
