CLEAN : Bay Area researchers study connection between root length and carbon storage

The video explores a natural mechanism for carbon storage in soil, focusing on how plants, particularly perennial ones like switchgrass, fix carbon in their roots. These roots can extend deep into the soil, making them effective at storing carbon in a stable environment. The video discusses the challenges of carbon retention and the advantages of underground storage, such as resistance to fire. It also covers the research methodology used to study these processes, emphasizing the importance of replicates to ensure reliable results.
