Management of Marginal Lands and Carbon Sequestration estimation through Remote Sensing and GIS

The course is targeted to students, researchers, or stakeholders who are interested in the analysis and management of Marginal Lands (MLs). This course is designed in 5 units in which it is expected to transfer the results of the European project “Identifying Marginal Lands in Europe and strengthening their contribution potentialities in a CO2 sequestration strategy (MAIL)”. Project under the European Union's Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie research and innovation program (Grant Agreement No. 823805).

All videos are based on the procedures followed in the MAIL project for Europe, which means that some of the procedures described may not be exactly transferable to other parts of the world.

The mechanics of the course are simple: follow the learning sequences proposed by the platform by watching the videos and asking the questions and activities that are proposed. In some cases, you will find optional readings that you can read to expand on the subject.
