The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

健健康的土壤是陆地上最大的碳 库。采用可持续方式管理的土壤 可以通过储存碳(碳封存)和减 少大气中的温室气体排放而起到 减缓气候变化的重要作用。相反,如果土壤管 理不善或采用不可持续的农作方法,土壤中的碳 则会以二氧化碳(CO2)的形式释放到大气中, 导致气候变化

AquaCrop-GIS, Version 2.1

Policy Papers & Briefs
november, 2015
Italy

AquaCrop-GIS has been designed to facilitate the use of the AquaCrop model (Steduto et al., 2009) when a high number of simulations is needed, simplifying the task of generating input and projects files and the management of output files. The AquaCrop-GIS tool prepares the required inputs, executes AquaCrop, elaborates the results and shows them in a Geographic Information System. This Manual describes how to use AquaCrop-GIS to carry out as many AquaCrop simulations as required, while the tool is described in detail in Lorite et al. (2013).
