Methods for exploring management options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from tropical grazing systems

An existing simulation model of a tropical savanna woodland grazing system was adapted to account for greenhouse gas emissions. This approach can be used to identify ways to assess and limit emissions from other rangeland, agricultural and natural ecosystems.
