Carbon storage through China’s planted forest expansion [PDF]

Nature Communications
China’s extensive planted forests play a crucial role in carbon storage, vital for climate change mitigation. However, the complex spatiotemporal dynamics of China’s planted forest area and its carbon storage remain uncaptured.

Lifting the profile of deep soil carbon in New Zealand’s managed planted forests [PDF]

Carbon Balance and Management
Background Forest soils are a globally significant carbon-store, including in deep layers (> 30 cm depth). However, there is high uncertainty regarding the response of deep soil organic carbon (DSOC) to climate change and the resulting impact on the ...

Eating plants and planting forests for the climate [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 2019
The IPCC's Special Report on Climate Change and Land addresses the closely coupled relationship between land use and climate change. The report notes the climate change mitigation potential of dietary shifts and afforestation. Here, we briefly discuss how decreases in ruminant meat consumption associated with dietary shifts have the potential to free ...

Spatial database of planted forests in East Asia

Scientific Data, 2023
Planted forests are critical to climate change mitigation and constitute a major supplier of timber/non-timber products and other ecosystem services. Globally, approximately 36% of planted forest area is located in East Asia. However, reliable records of
