The West Systems is the first laboratory in Italy to be accredited by ACCREDIA for the test for determining fluxes of CO2 and CH4. On 30 July, the West Systems laboratory obtained the ACCREDIA accreditation (no. 1779L) as a Test Laboratory for testing “Diffuse molar fluxes at the soil-air interface of carbon dioxide (CO2) and natural gas (CH4)”, in compliance with…
The measurement of soil respiration with the enclosure-based methods, such as the accumulation chamber, is carried out using cameras that are opaque to solar radiation when only the component deriving from the biochemical reactions of the soil is to be measured, excluding the contribution of the photosynthetic activity. In nature, photosynthesis is a process used…
