The Spatial Climate Solutions Lab and the 2035 Initiative at UCSB, along with collaborators Justin Baker at North Carolina State University, Chris Wade at Research Triangle Institute (RTI), and Aline Mosnier at the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) were awarded a grant to model US GHG emissions resulting from funding climate smart agricultural practices through the U.S. Farm Bill.
We will be taking a multi-modeling approach that leverages EPA and USDA produced marginal abatement cost curves for particular climate change mitigation agricultural practices and using the US FABLE Calculator to estimate national GHG emissions, land use change, crop production, and biodiversity impacts of various suites of climate smart agriculture funding programs. The UCSB team will consist of 2035 Initiative staff and two Spatial Climate Solutions Lab researchers.
