Explain in detail why wetland soils are a good carbon pool? Explain why soil micro-organisms decrease as you go deeper in the soil profile Explain why it is so important to do land use planning in Papua New Guinea.
Q1. Answer:
Wetland soils are good carbon pool because of the following reasons the wetland soils are greatly anaerobic, that means they lack the percentage of oxygen. Wetland holding around 35 percentage of the terrestrial carbon pool. Wetlands always has variety of plant species, so it has the potential to absorb massive amounts of carbon dioxide through the photosynthesis process.
Q2. Answer :
The population of micro organisms in the soil can be determined through the various factor, for example- the content of organic matter, porosity, the level of oxygen and carbon dioxide, soil PH, etc. As we go deeper in the soil then these all factors decreases, thus the soil micro organisms decreases as we go deeper in the soil profile.
Q3. Answer :
The land of Papua New Guinea is consider as a most even distribution of land within the world, so land assumes a special importance. The land of Papua New Guinea are very rich in gas, gold, copper and natural resources. Thus it is so important to do land use planning in Papua New Guinea.
