Harvested Wood Products: Forest Carbon after Harvest
The forest sector represents a large source of income for Canadians. In 2013, the forest sector contributed $19.2 billion or 1.25% of Canada’s GDP [1]. Harvested wood products (HWPs), which are manufactured using wood harvested from forests, have also made headlines recently, with the world’s tallest wood building at 18 storeys having completed construction at the University of British Columbia...
متن کاملEU mitigation potential of harvested wood products
BACKGROUND The new rules for the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry sector under the Kyoto Protocol recognized the importance of Harvested Wood Products (HWP) in climate change mitigation. We used the Tier 2 method proposed in the 2013 IPCC KP Supplement to estimate emissions and removals from HWP from 1990 to 2030 in EU-28 countries with three future harvest scenarios (constant historical ...
متن کاملCarbon Dynamics in Wood Products
The carbon (C) reservoir of wood products in Finnish construction and civil engineering was estimated by three inventories including the years 1980, 1990 and 1995. The inventory method is mainly based on the statistics of Finnish building stock. The use of different construction materials in different parts of buildings is estimated for each building type. Information collected through building...
متن کاملA carbon balance method for paper and wood products.
The approach used to track the flow of carbon sequestered in the forest through harvest, processing into products, and final disposition of products is described. The methodology is broadly flexible and applicable to forest-based carbon balance assessments. A carbon balance is computed across all forestland ownerships for the production facility of interest. The balance considers forest uptake,...
متن کاملMethane emissions from landfills and carbon dynamics of harvested wood products: the first-order decay revisited
The First-Order decay method for carbon stocks is derived from first principles, and applications in the context of national greenhouse gas inventories are discussed. For methane emissions from landfills a method is developed that in principle is more accurate than the method currently recommended by the IPCC, and systematic errors are estimated numerically. The First-Order decay method is furt...
