Innovative technologies for climate change mitigation by Mediterranean agricultural sector with the acronym LIFE ClimaMED is a European project implemented with the contribution of the LIFE financial instrument of the European Union. The project began on 1st July 2018 and will last 4,5 years, until 31 December 2022.

Project aims at developing and delivering innovative, reliable, rapid and cost effective technologies of Tier 3 level for the on-site measurement of CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions and Soil Organic Matter (SOC) stock changes from agricultural fields at real time, in order to assist scientists, public authorities and policy makers in collecting, quantifying, evaluating, mapping and reporting spatial data for GHGs emissions and SOC stock changes from the Mediterranean agricultural sector. Devices can be installed permanently at individual fields or group of fields.
