Description 2 volumes : illustrations (some color) ; 30 cm regular print Series National Carbon Accounting System technical report, 1442-6838 ; no. 36 National Carbon Accounting System technical report ; no. 36 Contents Part 1. Text, Appendices 1-2.8 -- Part 2. Appendices 3-11 Summary The current National Inventory of carbon fluxes resulting from changes in land use is based on the 1994 Workbook for Carbon Dioxide from the Biosphere 4.0. Although this methodology was developed after wide consultation with the scientific community, it is based on a number of crude assumptions and delineations, resulting in low levels of accuracy and reliability. Australia clearly needs to improve the accuracy and reliability of its National Inventory of net greenhouse emissions, a major component of which is due to changes in soil carbon levels. The work reported here represents the culmination and integration of a suite of projects designed to produce greatly improved estimates of soil carbon change in a timely and cost effective manner Notes "February 2003" "CSIRO Land and Water, Adelaide" Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Also available via the World Wide Web at: http://www.greenhouse.gov.au/ncas/reports/tr36final.html System requirements: Internet connectivity, World Wide Web browser, Adobe Acrobat reader National Carbon Accounting System technical report no:36 1442-6838 Subject National Carbon Accounting System (Project) Land use, Rural -- Australia -- Mathematical models.
