Scientific American: Soils Cannot Lock Away Black Carbon

"Climate scientists may have to rethink some of their old assumptions about carbon. US and European researchers have just established that black carbon, soot and biochar – the burnt remains from countless forest fires – doesn't stay in the soil indefinitely."

Kravitz, Ben; Robock, Alan; et al. (2012): Sensitivity of stratospheric geoengineering with black carbon to aerosol size and altitude of injection

Kravitz, Ben; Robock, Alan; Shindell, Drew T.; Miller, Mark A. (2012): Sensitivity of stratospheric geoengineering with black carbon to aerosol size and altitude of injection. In: J. Geophys. Res 117 (D9), pp. 1–22. doi:10.1029/2011JD017341

"Simulations of stratospheric geoengineering with black carbon (BC) aerosols using a general circulation model with fixed sea surface temperatures show that the climate a general circulation model with fixed sea surface temperatures effects strongly depend on aerosol size and altitude of injection."
