Global Forest Change datasets have the potential to assist countries with national forest measuring, reporting and verification (MRV) requirements. This paper assesses accuracy of data against nationally derived change by comparing loss estimates from global equivalent Guyana for period 2001–2017. To perform a meaningful comparison between these two datasets, initial year 2000 state needs first be matched definition land cover appropriate local setting. In Guyana, default 30% tree...
Background and Methods: Degradation of forests in developing countries results from multiple activities is perceived to be a key source greenhouse gas emissions, yet there are not reliable methodologies measure monitor emissions all degrading activities. Therefore, limited knowledge the actual extent forest degradation. can either interior, with repeatable defined pattern within areas forest, as timber harvest, or on edge immediately bounding deforestation. Forest degradation especially...
Abstract Almost all countries are making increasingly bold commitments to halt and reverse biodiversity loss, minimise the impacts of climate change, transition more sustainable development. The effective achievement many these relies on integrated spatial planning frameworks that adaptable national circumstances, priorities capabilities. This need is formally recognized by Target 1 Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), which specifies areas should be under such planning....
