Enhancing the Quantification of Wetland Methane Emissions by Data Assimilation and Remote Sensing Techniques to Improve Understanding of the Terrestrial Carbon Cycle

Dept/Center/Lab: Amrita Center for Wireless Networks and Applications (AWNA)

Project Incharge:Dr. Alka Singh
Enhancing the Quantification of Wetland Methane Emissions by Data Assimilation and Remote Sensing Techniques to Improve Understanding of the Terrestrial Carbon Cycle

The project aims at improving the  representation of methane production, removal and transport processes of tropical wetlands in a wetland methane biogeochemical model. It will advance mapping of wetland dynamics through models and remote sensing. The project will produce advanced  regional estimates of methane flux from important wetland areas of tropical regions.
