English term or phrase: carbon sequestration effect
In a carbon footprint assessment, the greenhouse gases emitted during the life cycle of a product or material are measured and compared to alternative products. Additionally, through wood modification, the carbon sequestration effect may be lengthened by increasing the durability of wood.
Jag förstår inte riktigt "sequestration" i det här sammanhanget. Menar de "effekten av koldioxidutsläpp" eller finns det en mer specifik betydelse?

Explanation:
"carbon sequestration: the long-term storage of carbon in plants, soils, geologic formations, and the ocean. Carbon sequestration occurs both naturally and as a result of anthropogenic activities and typically refers to the storage of carbon that has the immediate potential to become carbon dioxide gas. [...] considerable interest has been drawn to the possibility of increasing the rate of carbon sequestration through changes in land use and forestry and also through geoengineering techniques such as carbon capture and storage" (Britannica.com)

kolsekvestreringseffekt


Explanation:
Se http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_sequestration.
Som beskriver kolsekvestrering som: Carbon sequestration is the process of capture and long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Dvs. som ett slags omhändertagande (beslagtagande, bindning) av koldioxiden så att kolet inte når atmosfären som CO2 utan blir kvar på jorden i andra former och molekyler.
Sök på t.ex. på kolsekvestrering som bl.a. finns på mesh.kib.
