Research Project: Integrated Grassland and Cropland Observation Systems for Multi-Scale Observations Agroecosystem Processes

Location: Livestock, Forage and Pasture Management Research Unit

Project Number: 3070-21500-001-005-N
Project Type: Non-Funded Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: May 1, 2022
End Date: Apr 30, 2027

Objective:
To improve our understanding of biotic and abiotic factors that control carbon, energy, water, and greenhouse gas fluxes and budgets for Southern Plains agroecosystems.

Approach:
ARS will conduct integrated, multidisciplinary, multi-scale research using micrometeorological, ecological, agricultural, physiological approaches. The research will include field observations, spectral measurements at multiple scales and with multiple technologies, GIS analysis, and modeling.
