Definitions of Carbon Sequestration on the Web:

• Carbon sequestration is a geoengineering technique for the long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon, for the mitigation of global warming. Carbon dioxide is usually captured from the atmosphere through biological, chemical or physical processes. …
  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_sequestration
• The natural removal of carbon from the atmosphere by the soil and plants; Any of several processes for the removal of excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in an effort to mitigate global warming
  en.wiktionary.org/wiki/carbon_sequestration
• The capture and long-term storage of carbon dioxide before it is emitted into the atmosphere. One example: a system for filtering CO2 out of the emissions of a coal-fired power plant and pumping the CO2 deep underground.

• Setting apart of carbon in a relatively stable form in plant material, or in the organic fraction of soil.

• is the term describing processes that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. To help mitigate global warming, a variety of means of artificially capturing and storing carbon (while releasing oxygen) — as well as of enhancing natural sequestration processes — are being explored.

• A process by which harmful byproducts of the burning of fossil fuels are safely stored underground.

• The process of increasing the carbon stored in a carbon pool other than the atmosphere.

• Capture and long term storage of carbon in forests/soils/ocean. (ref. Art 3 of KP) Credits obtained from Carbon Sequestration are called Emission Removal Units (RMU’s).

• This refers to a set of technologies also referred to as carbon capture and storage (CCS) that, most often, pumps the CO2 released by an industrial plant (including, of course, biofuels plants) into a deep, well-sealed geological reservoir effectively preventing the CO2 from entering the atmosphere.

• an approach of greenhouse gas mitigation in which gasses are captured from point source emitters and sequestered underground and out of the atmosphere.
  www.farmland.org/programs/environment/climate-change/cap-and-trade-dictionary.asp
• The process by which carbon sinks remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. This can be done naturally by plants, or artificially, for instance, by removing carbon dioxide from coal-fired power plant emissions.
  www.ifpri.org/book-775/ourwork/researcharea/climate-change/terms-definitions
• Carbon and CO2 are stored naturally in forests, soil, and oceans, and can be removed from the atmosphere by land use change, afforestation, reforestation, ocean fertilisation, and changes in agricultural practices.
  www.carbon-financeonline.com/index.cfm
• is a method that reduces carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere by capturing carbon dioxide where it is generated and storing it underground.
  www.america.gov/st/energy-english/2009/June/20080725134616mlenuhret2.274722e-02.html&distid=ucs
• refers to the provision of long-term storage of carbon in the terrestrial biosphere (soil and organisms) – or the oceans, so that the buildup of carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere will reduce or slow.
  www.epaw.co.uk/carbon/glossary.html
• this is the net process of storing carbon in a carbon sink. Sinks can include terrestrial (soil, trees), oceanic, atmospheric, and geologic. …
