CO₂ Flux Monitoring System – Carbon Node

Introduction to the CO₂ Flux Monitoring System – Carbon Node

The Carbon Node is an advanced solution for carbon monitoring, providing direct and accurate measurements of carbon dioxide (CO₂) fluxes in ecosystems. The system is designed to simplify data collection, enabling researchers to deploy easily, access data quickly, and scale up monitoring networks with ease.


Operating Principle

The system operates based on the Eddy Covariance (EC) method, which is considered the “gold standard” for ecosystem CO₂ flux measurement. It utilizes a high-frequency Carbon Flux Sensor to measure CO₂ concentration, delivering fully processed results every 30 minutes. Compared to traditional EC systems, the Carbon Node offers equivalent accuracy in a more streamlined and compact setup.


Applications

The CO₂ Flux Monitoring System is widely used in environmental research and management, including:

  • Ecosystem Research: Assess CO₂ exchange in diverse ecosystems, contributing to a better understanding of carbon cycling and climate change impacts.

  • Agricultural Management: Monitor the influence of farming practices such as fertilization, irrigation, and grazing on CO₂ emissions, supporting the development of sustainable agriculture.

  • Forest Carbon Sequestration Assessment: Measure and track CO₂ uptake in forests, wetlands, and natural vegetation, supporting evaluation of carbon sinks and MRV processes in REDD+, ARR, IFM, and international carbon credit projects.

  • MRV Support for Carbon Credits: Provide transparent, reliable data for Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) in agriculture and forestry-based carbon initiatives.

  • Climate Change Impact Monitoring: Observe ecological responses of crops and forests to the effects of climate change.

  • Remote Sensing Model Calibration: Use in-situ flux data to calibrate and validate remote sensing models for carbon flux estimation.
