Abstract: The article presents a study that determines the measurement of soil surface carbon dioxide flux in grasslands using static or dynamic chambers. It offers overview of the method of the study that uses empirical model based on soil temperature, water content, and leaf area index (LAI). The result of the study suggests that carbon dioxide flux on soil temperature and water content is dependent on the photosynthetic capacity of the canopy.
