Terrestrial ecosystems play a crucial role in global carbon cycling by sequestering from the atmosphere and storing it primarily living biomass soil. Monitoring terrestrial stocks is essential for understanding impacts of changes land use on sequestration. This study investigates potential remote sensing techniques Google Earth Engine to map monitor forests Calabria (Italy) over past two decades. Using satellite-sourced Corine cover datasets InVEST model, Land Use Cover (LULC), concentrations are analyzed, providing insights into dynamics region. Furthermore, cellular automata Markov chain used simulate future spatial temporal LULC. The results reveal notable fluctuations LULC; specifically, settlement bare have expanded at expense forested grassland areas. These significantly declined overall between 2000 2024, resulting economic impacts. region experienced periods both decline growth concentration, with losses up EUR 357.57 million equivalent 6,558,069.68 Mg CO 2 emissions during decline. Conversely, gain, benefit reached 41.26 million, sequestered 756,919.47 emissions. research aims highlight critical satellite data enhancing our development comprehensive strategies managing ecosystems.

Agriculture is the second-highest, after energy use, source of greenhouse gas emissions, which are released from soils and animal digestion processes as a result consumption at various stages agricultural production. However, changes in management systems may mitigate negative impact this sector on atmosphere climate. This paper presents literature review agriculture potential crop production to assist mitigation global warming by increasing absorption CO2 atmosphere. The issue was considered context managing cultivation main, catch cover crops. carbon sequestration above- below-ground biomass selected crops analyzed. It stated that, depending species, main can sequester up 113 ha−1 yr−1 whole biomass, while or 14.80 0.17 respectively. benefits spread crops, such improvement soil quality (leading an increase primary yield even much 65%) phytosanitary effect, well barriers that limit use including problems with matching species climate conditions risk reducing farmers’ income, were considered. results show assimilate additional amount 4 6 tonnes yr−1, thus, spreading effective way reduce agriculture.
