Research from LDRCT focused on: continuous collection and analyses of CO2 flux data from Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan; determination of the effects of land use on carbon flux in northern Kazakhstan; continuation of intensive monitoring and modeling of agricultural enterprises; establishment of a forage laboratory in Samarkand and study of rangeland forages and livestock diets; and completion of bio-economic simulation model of range-based sheep producers for Kazakhstan. Project results and conclusions will be published in book form through the GL-CRSP 3G Project in Summer 2008.
