CE324: Farming for carbon: developing new age models and monitoring methods to mitigate climate change
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Cambridge
Department Name: Plant Sciences
Abstract
This project aims to develop an improved agricultural carbon soil model that
incorporates new data and empirical relationships in order to compare various
farmland management strategies for climate mitigation. This project is highly
relevant because farmland soil carbon sequestration has been proposed as a
carbon offsetting strategy by private companies and startups in a addition to
national governments, such as the U.S. and the U.K.
