Monitoring Carbon Stocks Using LiDAR With Anup Joshi

Your AI Injection

This week on the podcast we spoke with Anup Joshi to provide us with some insight into measuring and monitoring biological carbon stocks . Dr. Joshi has a Ph.D. in Conservation Biology from The University of Minnesota. Dr. Joshi currently works at the GHG Management Institute where he teaches remote sensing and GIS for measuring and mapping forest carbon stocks. Additionally, Dr. Joshi develops training courses for governments to report and verify forest carbon emissions for successful implementation of REDD+ programs.
In this exciting episode, we dive deep into the world of carbon stock mapping and how remote sensing and LiDAR are used to calculate the biomass of a tree. We also get an insight into carbon credit accounting and how this is emerging as a way to offset GHG emissions.
