Direct flux measurements of heat, water, greenhouse gases (GHGs), and pollutants between the earth’s surface and its atmosphere unlock fair and equitable climate solutions across natural and built environments. Innovations and markets based on such an approach help resolve global climate and air quality challenges and fairly reward small and big stakeholders.

This session, organized collaboratively by academia and industry, welcomes ideas and examples of how to utilize direct flux measurements for tangible societal benefits, such as agriculture and forestry, environmental impact management, reduction of anthropogenic emissions, carbon removal and MMRV, and more.

For instance, these measurements can be applied to irrigation scheduling, soil and plant treatments, GHG reduction and sequestration, global warming potential, urban heat management, satellite and model products, industry emissions, severe weather impacts, air quality management, and can be used as a diagnostic tool for meeting net-zero targets by different organizations, regulatory, and government agencies.
