Carbon Offset Projects - Fire Risk Analysis
Forest carbon offset projects are crucial for climate change mitigation through preservation, reforestation, and improved management. However, these projects have become increasingly vulnerable to climate-related disasters, with wildfires in certain parts of the world burning vast areas of these initiatives in recent years. To know more about the which projects and ecosystems are at risk, read our complete blog here.
Akshata Karnik, from Renoster's science team, has developed a comprehensive tutorial to determine the risk from wildfire to forest carbon offset projects across the globe. This is achieved by intersecting the Fire-Climate Classification data along with the geospatial database of carbon projects.
This three-part tutorial is ideal for individuals with intermediate to advanced coding skills, especially those interested in environmental data analysis. You will learn how to access, manipulate, and visualize data to better understand which carbon projects and ecosystems are most at risk.
