##### DNDC Model Overview
Biogeochemical model that simulates carbon and nitrogen cycling in terrestrial ecosystems
##### Focus
- Greenhouse gas emissions
- Soil carbon dynamics, and
- Nutrient cycling.
Widely used to assess the impacts of land management practices, climate change, and other factors on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and fluxes.

##### DNDC DNDC (Denitrification-Decomposition) Model
##### Uses
- Estimate SOC baseline stocks
- Predict the effects of different land management practices on SOC stocks and greenhouse gas emissions.
The model requires input data such as climate data, soil properties, land use/cover, and management practices.
- It can provide valuable insights into the potential benefits of the Montana grassland regeneration projects in terms of soil carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas mitigation.
