Workshop Theme
Accurate quantification of sources and sinks of greenhouse gases (GHGs) is required in order to monitor efforts at emission reduction. India, with its vast coastal areas and the highest mountain range, is one among a few countries that is extremely vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
Jointly with the Max-Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry (MPG-BGC), Germany, a Max-Planck Partner Group has been established at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research(IISER), Bhopal,India, with the aim to bring in significant advancement and innovation in terms of development and integrated GHG monitoring system for India.
The Kick-off workshop will aim at forstering the implementation of a data-driven modeling framework in India by establishing and further enhancing person-to -person contact. This will include an exchange of expert knowledge in terms of developing an integrated GHG monitoring system.
