Carbon dynamics of a warm season turfgrass using the eddy-covariance technique
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment(2018)
Abstract
•Despite large coverage, carbon balance of turfgrass ecosystem is not well known.•Eddy-covariance method was used to study carbon balance in a commercial sod farm.•Results show that turfgrass is an efficient assimilator of atmospheric carbon.•Turfgrasses show similar or higher rates of carbon capture to agricultural crops.
