Hi Michael,
Metta Spencer's weblog got me looking around the government labs more, Here are some new finds:
CSiTE -- A Distributed Consortium
Consortium research will address four broad management strategies that have potential for C sequestration at a particular location. These are (1) fertilization of managed forests; (2) conversion of cropland to native grassland (restoration); (3) conversion of conventional crop management to cropping systems based on legumes, reduced tillage, and/or cover crops; and (4) introduction of agroforestry to croplands. The overall net C storage, including externalities involving C fluxes associated with management activities per se are considered in part 5 of this proposal.

At first glance Lacker's work looks like a lot of infrastructure costs, like 250,000 of these giant units for worldwide CO2emissions, I wonder what each one cost to build and run?
