Carbon sequestration in Taiwan harvested wood products

International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology, 2011
This study, with FAOSTAT and Taiwan data sources, estimates Taiwan carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in harvested wood products (HWP) by applying the three accounting methods suggested by the 2006 IPCC Guidelines. The investigation also explores impulse responses of CO2 emissions to economic factors.

Productivity and cost of mechanized energy wood harvesting in Northern Scotland

Biomass and Bioenergy, 2011
Abstract At present, the utilization of timber in the Northern part of the Scottish Highlands is low due to a lack of a wood utilizing industry. As a consequence, the majority of forest owners do not receive any income from timber and in some cases stumpage prices can even be negative.

PRESTO: online calculation of carbon in harvested wood products

2014
Carbon stored in harvested wood products is recognized under international carbon accounting protocols, and some crediting systems may permit the inclusion of harvested wood products when calculating carbon sequestration. For managers and landowners, however, estimating carbon stored in harvested wood products may be difficult.

Modeling Carbon Sequestration In Harvested Wood Products

2017
Carbon offset programs, such as that overseen by the California Air Resources Board (CA ARB), have emerged as a strategy for climate change mitigation. Offset projects sequestering carbon earn credits that can be traded on the Cap and Trade market to compensate for carbon emissions.

Greenhouse gas impacts of harvested wood products

2003
Greenhouse gas (GHG) impact of wood and paper products, in the following referred as harvested wood products (HWP), is twofold: 1) HWP form a renewable pool of wood-based carbon, whose changes act as carbon sink or source, 2) manufacture and whole lifecycle of HWP cause fossil carbon emissions.

Assessing the Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Potential of Harvested Wood Products Substitution in China

Environmental Science & Technology, 2019
Substituting harvested wood products (HWP) for greenhouse gas (GHG) intensive nonwood materials in long-lived end uses has the potential to significantly reduce GHG emissions. To determine the mitigation effects of HWP substitution, we produced China-specific wood displacement factors (DFs) by HWP end use subcategory, defined as tonnes of carbon (tC ...

Productivity and cost evaluations of energy-wood and pulpwood harvesting systems in first thinnings

International Journal of Forest Engineering, 2014
In an environment where increases in both energy-wood and pulpwood production are desired, examining and differentiating forest energy-wood and pulpwood production systems based on their productivity and associated costs may allow potential users to better identify where cost savings may be realized, depending on their desired management preference ...

Effects of Wood Products Harvest on Forest Soil and Water Relations

Journal of Environmental Quality, 1980
AbstractThe effects of silvicultural treatments on streamflow have been evaluated for 20 years on a 34.7‐ha forested catchment on the Fernow Experimental Forest, near Parsons, in north‐central West Virginia. Selection harvest of 13, 8, and 6% of the basal area in 1958, 1963, and 1968, respectively, had negligible effect on any measured property of ...
