Forests and other terrestrial ecosystems play a crucial role inthe global carbon cycle. Managed and unmanaged ecosystems functionas either carbon sources or sinks depending on climate conditions,including extreme events, and the type and intensity of human pressure andmanagement practices. As such, leveraging Earth Observations (EO) tocomprehend, monitor, and quantify greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes, as well asthe early detection of carbon losses or sinks in soil, biomass and othercarbon pools, is paramount in addressing the challenge of tackling climatechange.
