This document summarizes a carbon offset project in Kenya that aims to increase soil carbon storage, food production, and climate resilience among smallholder farmers. However, the document raises several limitations and questions about the project. Specifically, it notes that the actual carbon payments to farmers will be very small (~$1/farmer/year) and that accurately measuring soil carbon levels and permanence of storage is extremely difficult. There are also questions around whether practices will truly increase food production and resilience or have unintended environmental or social consequences. Overall, the document casts doubt on the ability of the project to reliably generate carbon offsets and achieve its other goals.

CCAFS | CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security

This document discusses MRV (Measurement, Reporting and Verification) systems for soil organic carbon and soil carbon sequestration. It provides an overview of where current MRV systems and guidance are, including the IPCC guidelines, and what is still missing to fully utilize soils in climate mitigation efforts. Specifically, it notes that a clear signal of support from policymakers could help scale up investments in research, pilot projects and adoption of soil health practices. The unique opportunity presented by the Koronivia Joint Work on Agriculture to provide such a conclusion at COP could be a game-changer for soils to be fully considered in NDCs.

CCAFS | CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security

This document describes the Western Kenya Smallholder Agriculture Carbon Finance project. The project aims to work with 250,000 smallholder households to improve agricultural productivity, increase soil and biomass carbon stocks, and promote biodiversity conservation using Sustainable Agriculture Land Management practices. The project involves two carbon credit projects and one adaptation program, targeting 45,000 hectares of land managed by 60,000 farmers over 10 years. It is projected to generate 1.2 million tons of CO2e in carbon credits, with nearly 2 million USD in projected revenue by 2029 from the sale of credits. The methodology used involves monitoring changes in emissions and carbon sequestration from various agricultural and land management activities to estimate changes in soil and above/below

Nitrogen fertilizer reduction for Dianchi Lake in China

The Climate Trust

The Climate Trust is exploring the potential to generate carbon credits from changes in agricultural nutrient management practices. This work has most recently led our executive director, Sean Penrith, to Portland's sister city of Kunming in Yunnan Province. The goal of the trip was to scope the potential to harness the power of the country's new emissions trading systems to reduce agricultural runoff pollution in one of the province's major water sources, Dianchi Lake. The following presentation outlines the problem, and how carbon markets might be able to help.

Carbon Mechanisms, Markets, and Projects

World Agroforestry (ICRAF)

This document discusses Africa's opportunities for low-carbon, climate-resilient development in the agriculture, forestry, and other land use (AFOLU) sector. It notes that AFOLU is responsible for about 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions and provides livelihoods for many in Africa. While AFOLU emissions have increased in recent decades, the sector also offers significant mitigation potential through practices like improved forest and land management, sustainable agriculture, and bioenergy. Realizing this potential faces challenges around food security, access to finance and technology, and managing risks and trade-offs. Robust measurement, reporting and verification systems will also be needed to account for emissions across forests and non-forest lands.

ipcc-media

This document discusses Africa's opportunities for low-carbon, climate-resilient development in the agriculture, forestry, and other land use (AFOLU) sector. It notes that AFOLU is responsible for about 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions and outlines trends showing emissions increasing despite reduction efforts. The document then discusses challenges Africa faces in mitigation given expected emissions increases from food production. However, it also outlines large mitigation potential through land-based strategies like agriculture, forestry, and bioenergy. Key uncertainties are incomplete data and accounting for non-forest ecosystems and fluxes. Managing trade-offs between mitigation and adaptation is also discussed.

Institut de l'Elevage - Idele

Grasslands can sequester carbon through the buildup of plant biomass and incorporation into soil organic matter. The rate of carbon sequestration in grasslands varies considerably based on climate, soil type, grassland age, and management practices. On average, grasslands sequester 0.8 Mg of carbon per hectare per year. Fertilization and low-to-moderate grazing or mowing intensities can increase carbon sequestration, while high intensities and no fertilization can lead to carbon losses. Maintaining existing soil carbon stocks and adopting practices that store carbon are important for grasslands to mitigate climate change.

Kenya Smallholder Agriculture Carbon Finance Project

SIANI

This document summarizes the Kenya Smallholder Agriculture Carbon Finance Project. It describes the project's goal of promoting sustainable agricultural land management practices among smallholder farmers in Western Kenya. These practices aim to increase soil carbon sequestration while improving food security. The methodology uses activity-based monitoring and soil carbon modeling to estimate emission reductions from adopting practices like improved fallow systems and manure management. Over 18,800 farmers across 16,000 hectares have begun participating since 2009. The project seeks carbon finance under the Voluntary Carbon Standard to support advisory services that encourage low-carbon, climate-resilient smallholder agriculture.

Mark Reed

This document summarizes a presentation on creating business value from healthy landscapes. It discusses developing private schemes called Landscape Enterprise Networks (LENs) to deliver ecosystem services. LENs work by having "supply aggregators" engage farmers to design interventions that meet the needs of "demand aggregators" like businesses. This approach could help mobilize investment in landscapes by connecting business interests to the value of ecosystem services. The UK has pioneered similar codes and is providing global leadership in areas like peatland restoration policy. "LENs Laboratories" are now testing this approach in different regions of the UK.

Circularity and the SDGs: Pathways to a future possible?

Zuhalnal2

This document discusses the unsustainability of current global resource use and economic systems. It notes that global material extraction has more than doubled since 1970 while material productivity has stagnated in recent years. This growing resource use is putting pressure on the environment and liquidating natural wealth. Transitioning to a circular economy and lifestyles within a 1.5 degree warming limit will require major innovation away from resource scarcity and reinventing economics to prioritize a healthy planet. Businesses ask for tools to measure and improve their sustainability performance in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Sara Scherr - How can African Farmers Benefit from Carbon Markets? - Aug 2009

Pro-poor Rewards for Environmental Services in Africa ICRAF

The document discusses how African farmers can benefit from carbon markets by implementing practices that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase carbon sequestration. Some practices mentioned include improved agroforestry, cropland management, and pasture management. Challenges include accurately measuring agricultural landscape carbon and developing value chains that provide sufficient incentives for smallholder farmers. Potential solutions proposed are developing new tools to measure carbon cheaply and effectively at scale, mobilizing communities for climate planning, building efficient value chains, and including African agriculture in climate negotiations to pilot strategies for large-scale action.

Farm-level options for accelerating the transition towards climate smart agri...

CIAT

The difference between clever and smart people is mainly that clever people can get in and out of problems which smart people would not have gotten into in the first place. In the same light, faced with multifaceted challenges related to climate change, smartness would entail adapting our agricultural systems to avoid experiencing the negative impacts of climate change. In other words, climate smart agriculture (CSA) involves changing our agricultural systems to simultaneously address climate change challenges such as low food production, accelerated land degradation and increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. To achieve these objectives, agricultural systems should (1) sustainably increase productivity; (2) adapt and build resilience to climate change; and (3) reduce and/or avoid the emission of greenhouse gases. As will be discussed in this presentation, there is definitely no single agricultural technology or practice that can be universally applied to achieve these objectives. Nonetheless, site-specific assessments should be pursued to identify suitable agricultural practices, technologies, polices, financing and institutional arrangements that enhance smartness within a given situation. It will be noted that CSA is not necessarily based on new practices, technologies, polices and institutions. However, it involves holistically and simultaneously addressing challenges related to climate change by using a combination of familiar practices, technologies, polices and institutions in strategic but unfamiliar ways; that are not counterproductive. Moreover, the presentation aims to start a conversation on part of the work that has been done, is being done and can be done, through CIAT, to accelerate the transition towards smarter agriculture systems to ensure that, similar to smart people, we can avoid problems that complicate ours and the lives of generations to come.

Global sustainable livestock investment overview

CCAFS | CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security

This document summarizes information on the impacts of livestock production globally and in Asia. It finds that livestock occupies one third of global cropland and one quarter of ice-free land for pastures. Asia accounts for 32% of global enteric greenhouse gas emissions from livestock, with most emissions coming from India, China, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Rapid growth of livestock production in Asia is contributing to water and air pollution through nutrient runoff and emissions. The document discusses opportunities for public and private investment in more sustainable and climate-friendly livestock systems through technologies, monitoring, plant-based alternatives, and policies to guide intensification.

The impact of mechanization in smallholder rice production in Nigeria

CCAFS | CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security

Presentation by Han Soethoudt, Jan Broeze, and Heike Axmann of Wageningen University & Resaearch (WUR). WUR and Olam Rice Nigeria conducted a controlled experiment in Nigeria in which mechanized rice harvesting and threshing were introduced on smallholder farms. The result of the study shows that mechanization considerably reduces losses, has a positive impact on farmers’ income, and the climate.

Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...

AbdullaAlAsif1

The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...

Ana Luísa Pinho

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...

Sérgio Sacani

Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions among stars. Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars. The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun. Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically, the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec. Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software. Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2 s −1 . The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution, with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects

Sérgio Sacani

Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is mitigated, at least in part.

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf

University of Hertfordshire

When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best. Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level. Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
