Carbon2Markets is a project of Michigan State University that focuses on combining value chains from carbon credits in the carbon financial markets and agro-forestry products for small holders in developing countries. Carbon2Markets provides accurate measurements of carbon sequestration from reforestation and agro-forestry land management activities using high resolution remote sensing data, web-GIS tools, and modeling. Offset projects have repeat monitoring to ensure long-term storage of sequestered carbon. The model of project development and monitoring enhances the ground measurements with measurements from earth observing satellites. More>>
