Summary
Abstract: Joint Experiment for Crop Assessment and Monitoring

The overarching goal of JECAM is to reach a convergence of approaches, develop monitoring and reporting protocols and best practices for a variety of global agricultural systems. JECAM will enable the global agricultural monitoring community to compare results based on disparate sources of data, using various methods, over a variety of global ... View entire text

Purpose: To achieve the JECAM goals the initiative will bring together the GEO Agricultural Monitoring Community of Practice to undertake an inter-comparison of monitoring and modeling methods, product accuracy assessments, and data fusion. JECAM will take place on a finite set of regional pilot sites that are representative of a range of global agricultural systems. Data collected and shared will include ... View entire text

Project
Quality Concentrations of contaminants are measured by chemically analyzing a known
amount of homogenized egg and determining the proportion by weight of each
individual chemical. High-resolution capillary gas chromatography coupled with
electron capture detection are the techniques used currently.
