Net carbon storage of supplied timber in highly mechanized timber harvest
Silva FennicaHighly mechanized timber harvesting and timber logistics emit CO2. In turn, the provided timber stores CO2 from the atmosphere as biogenic carbon. This basic assumption resulted in the calculation of net carbon storage of supplied timber.
