Survey on forest soil greenhouse gas inventories in Europe now launched
In scope of the HoliSoils project, the Thuenen Institute (consortium partner) launched a questionnaire to review the different methods of calculating and reporting GHG fluxes in European countries. The aim is to gain knowledge of the applied methods, but also assess uncertainties and challenges of national inventories and pinpoint areas that can be improved. Based on the results of the questionnaire, we want to develop practice-oriented recommendations for improving future forest soil GHG inventories.
The questionnaire is targeted towards national experts specialised in either soil GHG inventory reporting procedures, national soil surveys or soil carbon modelling. For each target audience, a separate survey was created:
- GHG inventory reporting procedures
https://thuenen.limequery.com/735421?lang=en - Soil monitoring programs used for GHG inventories
https://thuenen.limequery.com/189485?lang=en - Soil carbon modelling approached used for GHG inventories and Forest Reference Levels

If you are a national expert in the field of GHG reporting, please help us by filling out the questionnaire(s) that applies to you until 22 May 2022.
