Theme 3 "Carbon and global climate change" sets out to understand the factors and main processes of primary production, carbon sequestration and the sustainability of agrosystems subject to climate change.
Challenges
- Determine C storage dynamics in agrosystems
- Assess how agrosystems adapt to global climate change (C, N, P and water cycles)
- Assess the trade-offs and synergies between primary production and other ecosystem services (C sequestration, nutrient cycles, water flow regulation) in agroecological practices
- Develop primary production and C sequestration indicators
