PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Project will use well-instrumented ecosystem test sites, including mine lands, crop lands and range lands, to measure carbon storage and water usage over time. These results, and those from the Partnership's accompanying greenhouse studies, will provide valuable data for ecosystem modeling and simulation. Objectives are to extend initial calibration of LIBS to a wide array of soil types, develop baseline estimates of carbon for initial site that include a semiarid site and a mine reclamation site, and evaluate ecosystem carbon storage potential for initial sites using baseline field data, greenhouse data, and other analyses and their economic implications.
