Estimating Reference Emission Level and Project Emission Level for REDD+ Projects in Tropical Forests
The REDD+ scheme of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is a carbon-based compensation for projects that resulted in reducing carbon emissions or enhancing carbon sinks or both in tropical forests. However, estimating such emissions and sinks remains challenging, and thus making it impossible to estimate carbon revenues from managing tropical forests. Here, we estimated th...
متن کاملUncertain Emission Reductions from Forest Conservation: REDD in the Bale Mountains, Ethiopia
The environmental integrity of a mechanism rewarding Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) depends on appropriate accounting for emission reductions. Largely stemming from a lack of forest data in developing countries, emission reductions accounting contains substantial uncertainty as a result of forest carbon stock estimates, where the application of biome-averaged data o...
متن کاملScenarios in tropical forest degradation: carbon stock trajectories for REDD+
BACKGROUND Human-caused disturbance to tropical rainforests-such as logging and fire-causes substantial losses of carbon stocks. This is a critical issue to be addressed in the context of policy discussions to implement REDD+. This work reviews current scientific knowledge about the temporal dynamics of degradation-induced carbon emissions to describe common patterns of emissions from logging a...
متن کاملBiodiversity Conservation in the REDD
Deforestation and forest degradation in the tropics is a major source of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The tropics also harbour more than half the world's threatened species, raising the possibility that reducing GHG emissions by curtailing tropical deforestation could provide substantial co-benefits for biodiversity conservation. Here we explore the potential for such co-benefits in I...
متن کاملLocal perspectives on REDD
Financial incentives can both support and undermine social norms compatible with environmental service enhancement. External co-investment e.g. through incentives from Reduce Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) and ecocertification needs to synergize with local efforts by understanding local dynamics and conditions for free and prior informed consent. We assessed the perceptions...
