| Abstract: | Building terraced fields on slopes is one of the common land management techniques and commonly used in Malta. Besides improving land for agricultural use, effective erosion reduction is achieved. Yet, there is data scarcity about such land management in Malta in respect to related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and its effects on climate change. Data from terraced fields are lacking and data from arid and semi-arid regions are particularly scarce according to our review on greenhouse gas emissions from soils. |
