Es geht um die Mitschrift einer Vorlesung von Prof. Rattan Lal zum Thema "The Nexus of Soil, Water and Waste".
"Accelerated erosion can also be a source of greenhouse gases. Based on my own data on a global scale, if 6 Pg of carbon is being displaced by water erosion, 1.1 Pg out of that can be emitted into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide and about 0.6 Pg is transported into the ocean and other aquatic ecosystems and ***depressional sites*** (Lal, 2003)."
Ich konnte den Begriff online nirgendwo finden. Könnte ich mit "Ablagerungsstätten" richtig liegen?

... wäre hier meine Vermutung - im Sinne von "Kohlenstoffsenken/CO2-Senken", da es ja um CO2-Emissionen geht (im Englischen wären das m. E. eigentlich "sinks").
