Satellites Help Map Soil Carbon Flux

Courtesy ScienceDaily  Wed, 03/26/2008 - 22:00

Scientists have recently integrated remote sensing products with a national carbon accounting framework to quantify soil carbon fluxes over large regions.

This advancement allows for the identification of soil and environmental attributes that are associated with unique combinations of planted crop and associated management inputs at the sub-county scale.

The study illustrates the ability to model carbon dynamics associated with actual crop fields for entire regions or continents.
