Cai et al. (2023): Spatial-temporal variation of the carbon sequestration rate of afforestation in China: Implications for carbon trade and planning

Weixiang Cai, Nianpeng He, Li Xu, Mingxu Li, Ding Wen, Shirong Liu, Osbert Jianxin Sun IN: Science of The Total Environment 884, 163792, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.163792

The lack of hierarchical spatial-temporal maps for the carbon sequestration rate (CSR) from afforestation and reforestation at the national scale impedes the scientific implementation of forest management planning to a large extent. The authors assessed the spatial-temporal CSR per area for afforestation and reforestation at the provincial, prefectural, and county levels in China using a forest carbon sequestration model under three climate scenarios.
