Global warming is catastrophic and accelerating phenomena The key to addressing the global warming problem is to further understanding the cause, CO2 and N20 cycles Motivated development of ATGTS Traps CO2 and N20 remotely at a high accuracy Introduction
Agricultural Practices • The dynamics of CO2 & N2O are heavily influenced by land management practices • System will be used to develop new farming practices and test old ones. • Increase accountability
Carbon Crediting • ATGTS makes carbon trading possible • AAA act • Kyoto Protocol • Sustainable oversight • Nitrogen trading
Impacts • Eliminate slash and burn • Regulate crop prices with out waste • Sustainable farming • No impact on yield or profits • Potential to reduce green house gas emissions more than taking 210 million cars of the road (1.6 billion tons of CO2) • Up to ¼ reduction in net emissions
Current Problems • Existing devices have insufficient resolution for Carbon Crediting systems • N2O flux is poorly constrained, and its microbial origin pathways are not well understood • Thus the devotement of an ATGTS system
