Offered Papers Theme B: Grassland and the Environment

Description

Grasslands cover significant areas in nontropical regions, perform essential biogeochemical functions and represent important natural and agricultural resource. Nevertheless, in contrast to forests and agroecosystems, no flux measurement-based global summary of their CO2 exchange, sequestration potential, and role in mitigation of the greenhouse effect were available.

Quantification of CO2 Exchange in Grassland Ecosystems of the World Using Tower Measurements, Modeling and Remote Sensing

Grasslands cover significant areas in nontropical regions, perform essential biogeochemical functions and represent important natural and agricultural resource. Nevertheless, in contrast to forests and agroecosystems, no flux measurement-based global summary of their CO2 exchange, sequestration potential, and role in mitigation of the greenhouse effect were available.
