Fertilizer might be stronger than we thought. A new international study found that fertilizer can help plants survive short-term periods of extreme drought, findings which could have implications for ...

Trees play a vital role in the global carbon cycle, storing large amounts of carbon as biomass. While this carbon stock increases as forests grow, it can be rapidly released back into the ...

The Biomass satellite will measure the trunks, branches and stems of the trees that populate the planet's forests. ESA says these measurements will serve as a proxy for determining carbon storage, ...

The data collected is then processed into highly detailed 3D maps of global biomass, providing information about the intricate structure of leaves, branches, and trunks. These readings will enable ...

the ESA Biomass satellite aims to provide essential new data on the quantity of carbon stored in tropical forests, helping scientists to address some of the most urgent global challenges.

A satellite with a 40-foot extendable antenna has launched into space with a giant mission: to map all of the world’s forests — ecosystems that are crucial for absorbing carbon and slowing ...

The ESA Biomass mission is scheduled to launch on 29 April 2025, enabling the precise determination of global forest biomass for the first time. Germany is participating with more than 20 percent of ...

The global adoption of biomass as a key energy source will continue to expand. Countries like India and China, which have already explored biomass utilization, will further scale their efforts ...
