We would like to welcome you to hear about NextGenCarbon, a new Horizon Europe funded project about to start here at the Remote Sensing Division (Department of Forest Resource Management). NextGenCarbon will officially start in January 2025, with a budget of € 12 million, running for 5 years and with 21 European partners.

Prof. Rubén Valbuena, as the project coordinator, will give a short overview and show opportunities for anyone at SLU who wishes to engage and put their own research work within this framework. There are two events to present the project:

  • Monday, 2nd December 2024 from 13 till approx. 13:45: general introduction to the project
  • Friday, 6th December 2024 from 14 till 16: in-depth meeting to discuss possible collaborations and contributions

About NextGenCarbon:

To mitigate the severity of climate change, the EU has adopted ambitious emission reduction targets that include land-based carbon sources and sinks. To achieve and monitor progress towards these targets, we need reliable data that can be updated frequently to promptly and efficiently adjust policies for land management and fossil fuel emission reduction ambitions.

NextGenCarbon aims to develop the next generation of global C models, harnessing the potential of combining EOs, in situ data campaigns, novel demographic model structures and advanced assimilation techniques to create an unprecedentedly well-informed understanding of terrestrial C stocks and fluxes to inform multiple emerging policy frontiers.
