Signatory countries to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and its supplementary Kyoto Protocol (KP) are obliged report greenhouse gas emissions removals. Changes in carbon stock of living biomass should be reported using either default or change methods Intergovernmental Panel (IPCC) under Land Use, Land-Use Forestry sector. Traditionally, volume estimates used as a forestry measures. may assessed by first estimating stem wood then converting this whole tree...

Abstract We analyse the short‐ and long‐term consequences for atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations of forest management strategies product uses in Sweden by comparing modelled resource use vs. increased conservation at different levels GHG savings from carbon sequestration substitution with bioenergy other products. Increased set‐asides resulted larger reductions only short term when effects were low. In all cases, was more beneficial. scenarios, annual dioxide (CO 2 ) rates...

Abstract Accurate estimates of below-ground biomass trees are important when quantifying the amount carbon sequestered in forests. Allometric single-tree functions were developed for Pinus sylvestris, Picea abies and Betula pendula pubescens Sweden. The idea was to calibrate an existing comprehensive data set about 600 that only covered stump coarse roots against a new down 2 mm diameter. consisted 80 acquired using same design as set, but complemented with detailed inventory fine root...

Recent developments in remote sensing (RS) technology have made several sources of auxiliary data available to support forest inventories. Thus, a pertinent question is how different RS should be combined with field make inventories cost-efficient. Hierarchical model-based estimation has been proposed as promising way combining: (i) wall-to-wall optical that are only weakly correlated structure; (ii) discontinuous sample active more strongly and (iii) sparse data. Model predictions based on...

The Good Practice Guidance (GPG) for reporting emissions and removals of greenhouse gases from the land use, land-use change, forestry (LULUCF) sector United Nation's Framework Convention on Climate Change states that uncertainty estimates should always accompany net emissions. Two basic procedures are suggested: simple error propagation Monte-Carlo simulation. In this article, we argue these methods not very well-suited assessments in connection with sample-based surveys such as national...

National Forest Inventories (NFIs) provide estimates of forest parameters for national and regional scales. Many key variables interest, such as biomass timber volume, cannot be measured directly in the field. Instead, models are used to predict those from measurements other field variables. Therefore, uncertainty or variability NFI results not only selecting a sample population but also uncertainties interest. The aim this study was quantify model-related Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.]...

Abstract The absence of boreal forests from global policy agendas on sustainable development and climate change mitigation represents a massive missed opportunity for environmental protection. zone contains some the world's largest pools terrestrial carbon that, if not safeguarded conversion to net source greenhouse gases, could seriously exacerbate change. At same time, countries have strong tradition forest management—expertise that be effectively leveraged toward national targets...

Abstract Key message Using satellite-based maps, Ceccherini et al. (Nature 583:72-77, 2020) report abruptly increasing harvested area estimates in several EU countries beginning 2015. more than 120,000 National Forest Inventory observations to analyze the map, we show that it is not but map’s ability detect areas increases after 2015 Finland and Sweden.
