The book addresses in a comprehensive way the full greenhouse gases
budget of the Italian landscape, focusing on land use and
terrestrial ecosystems. In recent years there has been a growing
interest in the role of terrestrial ecosystems with regard to the
carbon cycle and only recently a regional approach has been
considered for its specificity in terms of new methodologies for
observations and models and its relevance for national policies on
mitigation and adaptation to climate changes. In terms of methods
this book describes the role of flux networks and data-driven
models, airborne regional measurements of fluxes and specific
sectoral approaches related to important components of the human
and natural landscapes. There is also a growing need on the part of
institutions, agencies and policy stakeholders for new data and
analyses enabling them to improve their national inventories of
greenhouse gases and their compliance with the UNFCCC process. In
this respect the data presented is a basis for a full carbon
accounting and available to relevant stakeholders for improvements
and/or verification of national inventories. The wealth of research
information is the result of a national project, CARBOITALY, which
involved 15 Italian institutions and several researchers to provide
new data and analyses in the framework of climate policies.
