Carbon dynamics of paper, engineered wood products and bamboo in landfills: evidence from reactor studiesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 Số 1 - Trang 1-13 - 2018
Ximenes, Fabiano A., Kathuria, Amrit, Barlaz, Morton A., Cowie, Annette L.
There has been growing interest in the development of waste-specific decay factors for estimation of greenhouse gas emissions from landfills in national greenhouse gas inventories. Although engineered wood products (EWPs) and paper represent a substantial component of the solid waste stream, there is limited information available on their carbon dynamics in landfills. The objective of this study w...... hiện toàn bộ
Improving carbon monitoring and reporting in forests using spatially-explicit informationSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 11 - Trang 1-16 - 2016
Céline Boisvenue, Byron P. Smiley, Joanne C. White, Werner A. Kurz, Michael A. Wulder
Understanding and quantifying carbon (C) exchanges between the biosphere and the atmosphere—specifically the process of C removal from the atmosphere, and how this process is changing—is the basis for developing appropriate adaptation and mitigation strategies for climate change. Monitoring forest systems and reporting on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals are now required components of i...... hiện toàn bộ
Carbon stock of the various carbon pools in Gerba-Dima moist Afromontane forest, South-western EthiopiaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 14 - Trang 1-10 - 2019
Abyot Dibaba, Teshome Soromessa, Bikila Workineh
Unlike in the developed countries, Ethiopia does not have carbon inventories and databank to monitor and enhance carbon sequestration potential of different forests. Only small efforts have been made so far to assess the biomass and soil carbon sequestration at micro-level. This study was carried out to obtain sufficient information about the carbon stock potential of Gerba-Dima forest in south-we...... hiện toàn bộ
Time-series maps of aboveground carbon stocks in the forests of central SumatraSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 1-13 - 2015
Rajesh Bahadur Thapa, Takeshi Motohka, Manabu Watanabe, Masanobu Shimada
Efforts to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in tropical Asia require accurate high-resolution mapping of forest carbon stocks and predictions of their likely future variation. Here we combine radar and LiDAR with field measurements to create a high-resolution aboveground forest carbon stock (AFCS) map and use spatial modeling to present probable future AFCS changes for th...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of tree species diversity and stand structure on carbon stocks of homestead forests in Maheshkhali Island, Southern BangladeshSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 16 - Trang 1-15 - 2021
Tarit Kumar Baul, Avinanda Chakraborty, Rajasree Nandi, Mohammed Mohiuddin, Antti Kilpeläinen, Taslima Sultana
The homestead forests of Bangladesh occupy 0.27 million hectares (10% of the total forested area) and have potential to store carbon (C) and conserve biodiversity. Small scale forestry practices, however, are lacking reliable estimation of C stocks and tree species diversity. This may hinder successful implementation of REDD + and similar mechanisms as they concentrate on large-scale forests. This...... hiện toàn bộ
Water-air CO2 fluxes in the Tagus estuary plume (Portugal) during two distinct winter episodesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 1-15 - 2015
Ana P Oliveira, Marcos D Mateus, Graça Cabeçadas, Ramiro Neves
Estuarine plumes are frequently under strong influence of land-derived inputs of organic matter. These plumes have characteristic physical and chemical conditions, and their morphology and extent in the coastal area depends strongly on physical conditions such as river discharge, tides and wind action. In this work we investigate the physical dynamics of the Tagus estuary plume and the CO2 system ...... hiện toàn bộ
Two large-scale forest scenario modelling approaches for reporting CO2 removal: a comparison for the Romanian forestsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 16 - Trang 1-17 - 2021
Viorel N. B. Blujdea, Richard Sikkema, Ioan Dutca, Gert-Jan Nabuurs
Forest carbon models are recognized as suitable tools for the reporting and verification of forest carbon stock and stock change, as well as for evaluating the forest management options to enhance the carbon sink provided by sustainable forestry. However, given their increased complexity and data availability, different models may simulate different estimates. Here, we compare carbon estimates for...... hiện toàn bộ
Time-series maps of aboveground biomass in dipterocarps forests of Malaysia from PALSAR and PALSAR-2 polarimetric dataSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 1-19 - 2018
Hamdan Omar, Muhamad Afizzul Misman
Malaysia typically suffers from frequent cloud cover, hindering spatially consistent reporting of deforestation and forest degradation, which limits the accurate reporting of carbon loss and CO2 emissions for reducing emission from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) intervention. This study proposed an approach for accurate and consistent measurements of biomass carbon and CO2 emissions ...... hiện toàn bộ
On the realistic contribution of European forests to reach climate objectivesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 14 - Trang 1-5 - 2019

A recent article by Luyssaert et al. (Nature 562:259–262, 2018) analyses the climate impact of forest management in the European Union, considering both biogeochemical (i.e., greenhouse gases, GHG) and biophysical (e.g., albedo, transpiration, etc.) effects. Based on their findings, i.e. that additional net overall climate benefits from forest management would be modest, the authors conclude that ...... hiện toàn bộ
