Carbon Accounting for Carbon Dioxide Enhanced Oil recovery [PDF]

, 2014
It is recognised from currently operating CO2EOR projects that the operations and processes involved in CO2EOR are energy intensive and may compromise the overall carbon footprint of a project (ARI, 2009; Dilmore, 2010).

Predicting the deforestation-trend under different carbon-prices

Carbon Balance and Management, 2006
Background Global carbon stocks in forest biomass are decreasing by 1.1 Gt of carbon annually, owing to continued deforestation and forest degradation. Deforestation emissions are partly offset by forest expansion and increases in growing stock primarily

Questioning emissions-based approaches for the definition of REDD+ deforestation baselines in high forest cover/low deforestation countries

Carbon Balance and Management, 2018
Background REDD+ is being questioned by the particular status of High Forest/Low Deforestation countries. Indeed, the formulation of reference levels is made difficult by the confrontation of low historical deforestation records with the forest ...

Improving aboveground biomass maps of tropical dry forests by integrating LiDAR, ALOS PALSAR, climate and field data

Carbon Balance and Management, 2020
Background Reliable information about the spatial distribution of aboveground biomass (AGB) in tropical forests is fundamental for climate change mitigation and for maintaining carbon stocks.

Climatic regions as an indicator of forest coarse and fine woody debris carbon stocks in the United States

Carbon Balance and Management, 2008
Background Coarse and fine woody debris are substantial forest ecosystem carbon stocks; however, there is a lack of understanding how these detrital carbon stocks vary across forested landscapes.

An estimate of carbon emissions from 2004 wildfires across Alaskan Yukon River Basin

Carbon Balance and Management, 2007
Background Wildfires are an increasingly important component of the forces that drive the global carbon (C) cycle and climate change as progressive warming is expected in boreal areas.

Carbon uptake by mature Amazon forests has mitigated Amazon nations’ carbon emissions

Carbon Balance and Management, 2017
Background Several independent lines of evidence suggest that Amazon forests have provided a significant carbon sink service, and also that the Amazon carbon sink in intact, mature forests may now be threatened as a result of different processes.

Carbon fluxes in ecosystems of Yellowstone National Park predicted from remote sensing data and simulation modeling

Carbon Balance and Management, 2011
Background A simulation model based on remote sensing data for spatial vegetation properties has been used to estimate ecosystem carbon fluxes across Yellowstone National Park (YNP).

Numerical study on bed-side curtains and ventilation arrangement for mitigating COVID-19 risks in a shipboard ward with heat sources

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Ward-acquired infections (WAIs) has become a critical concern, particularly for ships with limited resources. An assessment approach combining validated computational fluid dynamics and the novel Wells-Riley assessment method is proposed to evaluate ...

Climate change mitigation in Canada’s forest sector: a spatially explicit case study for two regions

Carbon Balance and Management, 2018
Background We determine the potential of forests and the forest sector to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by changes in management practices and wood use for two regions within Canada’s managed forest from 2018 to 2050.
