‘Carbon forestry’: managing forests to conserve carbon
2004Positive measures are particularly required to conserve and enhance soil carbon stocks in forests. A key question is whether we can hope to maintain or even enhance removal of CO2 from the atmosphere in the immediate future by planting trees, and get credit for so doing.

Forests, carbon and global climate
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2002This review places into context the role that forest ecosystems play in the global carbon cycle, and their potential interactions with climate change. We first examine the natural, preindustrial carbon cycle. Every year forest gross photosynthesis cycles approximately one-twelfth of the atmospheric stock of carbon dioxide, accounting for 50% of ...

Carbon Economy of Subtropical Forests
2016Compared to tropical and temperate forests, subtropical forests have received little attention in physiological and ecological studies until now, and the contribution of this ecosystem type to the global carbon cycle has not been fully assessed. In this chapter we discuss results on the carbon balance of subtropical forests at different spatial and ...

A model of carbon storage in forests and forest products
Tree Physiology, 1990This paper discusses the general formulation of a model that describes carbon storage in a forest and its timber products as a function of the forest growth curve, the rotation period and the carbon retention curves for the timber products. After a number of rotations, the rotation-averaged quantity of stored carbon approaches an asymptotic value.

Forest carbon offset protocols in compliance carbon markets
Forest Policy and EconomicsThe forestry sector plays a significant role in nature-based climate solutions. This paper is a comparative review and analysis of forest carbon offset protocols in compliance carbon markets in Australia, California, China, New Zealand, and U.S ...

Soil Carbon in the Forests of Russia
Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies for Global Change, 2006The 50% variation in the estimates of carbon (C) content in the forest soils of Russia at present is caused by confusion of terms and ignorance of the soil geographical representativeness in forests. The GIS-based analysis closes the gap to the estimate published earlier by Alexeyev and Birdsey (1994, p. 170).

Trends in global research in forest carbon sequestration: A bibliometric analysis
, 2020Based on the Web of Science Core Collection databases from 1990 to 2018, a scientometric analysis of 1,284 academic works related to forest carbon sequestration is carried out to characterize the intellectual landscape by identifying and revealing the ...

Valued forest carbon sinks: How much emissions abatement costs could be reduced in China
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2019: Carbon sink is an effective measure to balance the contradiction between economic development and mitigating climate change in China. This paper reveals that environmental performance of forest carbon sinks reflects in economic value by reducing the ...

Carbon Credits for Forests and Forest Products [PDF]
, 2001 It is possible to make a current valuation of the effects of carbon dioxide which tracks a valuation done under the metric of expected present value and also tracks realized values. The implementation of a carbon credit scheme based on green accounting could go as follows: 1) At dates strictly between planned harvests, impute a credit of the value of ...
