Abstract:

Scientific assessment and excavation of tea plantation carbon sequestration resilience for tea plantation is of great important for significance to the green low-carbon development of tea plantations and the response to climate change. In this paper, through the review of domestic and foreign tea plantation carbon sequestration and emission reduction related references, combined with the research work of the subject group based on a systematic analysis of the carbon sequestration toughness of tea plantations. The results showed that: (1) carbon sequestration-resilient cultivation systems were identified as crucial pathways for achieving sustainable development and climate change adaptation in tea plantation ecosystems. Conventional intensive management practices were found to have excessively prioritized yield and quality metrics, while sustainable management measures incorporating carbon resilience and emission reduction technologies were demonstrated to be deficient. This imbalance was shown to have resulted in compromised climate resilience, whereas the establishment of integrated low-carbon technical frameworks with enhanced sequestration capacity was proven to provide essential technical safeguards for addressing extreme weather events and fulfilling dual-carbon objectives. (2) Intelligent and precise monitoring systems for carbon sequestration and emission reduction in tea plantations were shown to facilitate real-time tracking of carbon emissions and identification of potential mitigation opportunities. Through such systems, plantation managers were able to estimate carbon stocks, assess carbon dynamics, and obtain timely carbon-related information, thereby enhancing the resilience of the tea plantation carbon system to climate-induced disturbances. (3) Standardized management frameworks for carbon sequestration and emission reduction in tea plantations were demonstrated to effectively regulate farmer behavior and improve coordination between low-carbon technologies and plantation management, This promoted the comprehensive implementation of low-carbon tea plantation standards. A tripartite mechanism encompassing low-carbon technologies, intelligent monitoring, and standardized management was found to significantly strengthen the carbon sequestration resilience of tea plantation ecosystems.
