Kick-off of the CARBO-ST project

On July 4th the kick-off of the project CARBO-ST took place.

The project aims to provide reliable data on CO2 sink/source strength of ecosystems in South Tyrol. Leveraging a dense network of monitoring stations, the project will develop a remote sensing-driven monitoring system. Key activities include standardizing eddy covariance measurements, processing satellite data, and using these in a simulation model to quantify net ecosystem exchange of CO2 (NEP) and net biome production (NBP) and will provide a web-based visualization of the results for public access.
