#MRV4SOC is an #EU project focused on monitoring, reporting and verifying #soil organic carbon & greenhouse gas balance.
About us
#MRV4SOC is a project co-funded by the European Union with a clear objective: to monitor Carbon farming through its three-pillar method of standardization, reporting and verification. MRV4SOC aims to account for changes in as many Carbon pools as possible, estimate Green House Gases (GHG) and full Carbon budgets, couple Carbon and Nitrogen cycles, quantify Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) accumulation, and assess the results of traditional management practices and Carbon farming. MRV4SOC faces important challenges: - the first one is the monitoring of SOC accumulation changes triggered by climate change and socio-economic pressures. High-quality in-situ and remote sensing data collection is crucial for an effective testing. - the second challenge is to develop a solid scientific methodology valid at different geographical scale. At the same time, MRV4SOC will guarantee that its monitoring reporting, and verification schemes are transparent, robust, and cost-effective. - the third challenge faced by MRV4SOC is to increase people’s trust in the Voluntary Carbon Market, a method to reduce and regulate the GHG emissions. MRV4SOC has 6 objectives: - measure long-term soil organic carbon accumulation in 9 EU representative land use/land cover classes. - assess how carbon farming practices drive carbon flux dynamics in the 9 classes. - evaluate the impact of climate change on soil organic carbon accumulation. develop a robust, transparent, standard, and cost-effective monitoring, reporting, and verification system to facilitate results-based payments associated with farming practices. - identify revenue opportunities to unlock results-based payments. increase stakeholders’ confidence in voluntary carbon markets. Co- Funded by the European Union under Grant Agreement N. 101112754.

MRV4SOC project reposted this
Carbon Farming in the EU. An interesting workshop with Soil Mission Projects MRV4SOC, MARVIC and DG CLIMA in Ispra. We discussed on the carbon farming methodologies for the standardised baselines and emission removal quantification of activities in agricultural soils. We also agree on a roadmap and concrete actions and collaborations. More i the Carbon Farming Summit in Dublin next March. Project Marvic MRV4SOC project
