Vasit Sagan and Derek Tesser from Saint Louis University are making strides in mapping cattle emissions globally through the Climate TRACE coalition. Their work focuses on tracking methane and nitrous oxide from livestock operations, highlighting both challenges and opportunities for #MethaneReduction and #CarbonSequestration. https://climatetrace.org/news/saint-louis-university-s-vasit-sagan-and-derek-tesser-on-mapping-cattle-emissions

Saint Louis University’s Vasit Sagan and Derek Tesser on mapping cattle emissions

We recently talked with Vasit Sagan, PhD, Professor of Geospatial Science and Computer Science, Associate Vice President for Geospatial Science, and Derek S. Tesser, PhD, Senior Research Scientist, both at Saint Louis University’s Remote Sensing Lab, whose research is powering Climate TRACE’s cattle emissions data.

A ‘shocking’ carbon discovery in Sweden’s forests

A new study finds old-growth forests in Sweden store far more carbon than the industrial tree plantations that are rapidly replacing them, with soil accounting for most of the difference. Protecting undisturbed areas could do more to mitigate climate change than previously thought.

Ok, I'll play!
1. I see more Larch than Spruce.
2. Like it or not, spruce is our best bet for construction timber & the long term #CarbonSequestration this provides; & replaces more #CarbonIntensive building materials.
3. The real issue isn't Sitka spruce per se, but our #SilviculturalPractice
Ask why not #regenerate &/or replant the vast areas of #Scotland's currently denuded, depleted #BarrenWastelands of sheep & shooting estates? #RightTreeRightPlaceRightReason

"In the 90s we had the mahogany boom ... and you almost can't find a mahogany tree in the [Amazon] jungle anymore. And if you want to talk about carbon sequestration in the rainforest, the ancient hardwoods hold like 60% of the carbon of the whole rainforest."

Changes in four-dimensional carbon sinks in forest ecosystems: Evidence from the Heilongjiang Province of China

Abstract. Carbon sequestration rates (CSRs) in forest ecosystems can be accurately predicted at different spatial and temporal scales. However, the variati

56 million years ago, the Earth suddenly heated up – and many plants stopped working properly | The-14

New research shows how rapid global warming 56 million years ago caused plants to fail, reducing carbon storage and prolonging Earth’s ancient heatwave.

Discover the hidden health benefits of forests! #Forests #Health #CarbonSequestration

Did you know that forests are nature's lungs, absorbing a third of the carbon dioxide we produce? This natural process called carbon sequestration is crucial for maintaining our planet's health. A recent study revealed that protecting forests could prevent 30% of global carbon emissions. This not only combats climate change, but also improves air quality, reducing respiratory…
