Evaluation of Approaches for Assessing the Impacts of Natural Disturbances on Aboveground Carbon Storage in and Emissions from U.S. Forests – A Carbon Monitoring System Science Definition Team Project

NASA’s Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) is a new initiative to develop approaches to use remotely-sensed data to assess key aspects of the global carbon cycle.  This project is providing support to support the CMS Science Definition Team, and will provide advice to the CMS with respect to developing approaches to assess the impacts of forest disturbance on carbon cycling.
