Training school on measuring greenhouse gases in agricultural systems

The COST Action LivAGE and the Network NUEVA (Network for Updating Emission Values in Agriculture) organize a training school in Lugo (Spain) during 28-29 March 2019 (University of Santiago de Compostela, Lugo site).

The aim of the training school is to offer comprehensive decision making criteria to identify the best measurement techniques in different research scenarios and practical demonstration of the use of a range of measurement techniques. The program involves two sessions dealing with both animal and agro-forestry systems in which an introductory talk will be followed by practical demonstration of a range of measuring techniques.
