Carbon Sequestration in Central European Forest Ecosystems
The forests of Central Europe play an important role in the retention of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Carbon sequestration is rarely the main objective of forest management and is often an underappreciated by-effect of practical forest management, whereas timber production and protection against natural hazards in mountain regions are the main forest functions. Climate change is expected to alte...
متن کاملHurricane impacts on US forest carbon sequestration
Recent focus has been given to US forests RS I sink for incrcascs in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Current estimates of US Eorest carbon sequestration average approximately 20 Tg (i.e. IO” g) year. However, predictions of forest carbon sequestration ofien do not include the influcncc of hurricanes on forest carbon storage. Intense hurricanes occur two out of three years across the eastern US. A s...
متن کاملHurricane impacts on US forest carbon sequestration.
Recent focus has been given to US forests as a sink for increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Current estimates of US forest carbon sequestration average approximately 20 Tg (i.e. 10(12) g) year. However, predictions of forest carbon sequestration often do not include the influence of hurricanes on forest carbon storage. Intense hurricanes occur two out of three years across the eastern US. ...
متن کاملForest rotation lengths under carbon sequestration payments
★ This paper represents work completed at the Australian National University. I am now working at the Productivity Commission. The views expressed in this paper do not necessarily reflect those of the Productivity Commission. Carbon dioxide emissions resulting from direct human activities, primarily fossil fuel use and land clearing, have altered the global carbon cycle. Carbon is absorbed (seq...
متن کاملEstimating Leakage from Forest Carbon Sequestration Programs
Leakage from forest carbon sequestration—the amount of a program’s direct carbon benefits undermined by carbon releases elsewhere—depends critically on demanders’ ability to substitute non-targeted timber for timber targeted by the program. Analytic, econometric, and sector-level optimization models are combined to estimate leakage from different forest carbon sequestration activities. Empirica...
