Australian National Carbon Accounting System Tools
Land managers in Australia will be able to monitor the effects of farming and forestry on greenhouse gas emissions using their own computer, thanks to these tools
Order the Data Viewer DVD for a 30-year visual record of landscape and vegetation change in Australia since 1972 generated from satellite images. It allows land managers to zoom in on any location in the Australian continent, including their property, to analyse such things as changes in tree cover, areas for revegetation, where planting has been effective and the extent of areas affected by fire or drought. It also provides access to climate statistics for specific regions, including average rainfall and temperature trends over that time.
Order the National Carbon Accounting Toolbox CD for a set tools to track greenhouse gas emissions and carbon stock changes from land use and management. The CD includes the Full Carbon Accounting Model (FullCAM), which is based on Australia’s National Carbon Accounting System.
