We conclude by discussing the achieved parameters in comparison to results obtained with other techniques, which shows that the developed sensor is a promising tool for monitoring of greenhouse gases.
Our research provided a practical approach to allow the detection of changes in greenhouse land cover in the countries with using free or low-cost satellite images.
The importance of CO2 and methane study is reflected in the successful operation of the Japanese Greenhouse gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT) monitoring those trace gases globally from orbit.3
With development of this Remote Monitoring System, it is hope that it will benefit farmers in term of bringing new technical innovation in collecting data and monitoring greenhouse.
The experimental results show that the system can effectively realize multi-point environmental monitoring of the greenhouse.
"Greenhouse-2" will also provide the first orbital test of a new Svet Instrumentation System (SIS) developed by Utah State University to provide near real time data on plant environmental parameters and gas-exchange rates.
The results also suggest that satellite remote sensing might be able provide additional information about burning conditions which are strongly affecting greenhouse gas emissions.
It shows that the system is stable, reliable, and it's able to achieve real-time monitoring of greenhouse environment.

This study demonstrates an effective method for directly monitoring, from space, future changes in the greenhouse effect.
Polar Mesospheric Clouds (Noctilucent Clouds), which are sensitive to all of these factors may well be the clearest signal of global change tied to the greenhouse gas build up.
The connection of the monitoring of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and sinks with the satellite monitoring enlarges the possible applications of this information system.
This is the first study of its kind where a national government has published a time series of its total greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint.
The presented results are of the highest interest in terms of low-cost production of ultra-light and ultra-low-power consumption gas sensors for environmental monitoring of greenhouse gases and their simplicity from the technological/engineering points of view.
These high accuracy measurements should allow for improved atmospheric retrievals of greenhouse gas concentrations by current and future remote sensing missions.
The network is a key component of the North American Carbon Program and a useful model for future research-grade operational greenhouse gas monitoring efforts.
The early industrialization experiment can be used to obtain a first estimate of the detection time for a greenhouse-gas-induced near-surface temperature signal.
