The greenhouse gas value of ecosystems
As society faces the urgent need to mitigate climate change, it is critical to understand how various ecosystems contribute to the climate, and to express these contributions in terms that are meaningful to policymakers, economists, land managers, and other nonscience interest holders. Efforts to mitigate climate change call for quantification of the full greenhouse gas (GHG) effects of land us...
متن کاملEcohidrology and Nutrient Fluxes in Forest Ecosystems of Southern Chile
Nitrogen (N) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems is a global environmental concern. The N cycle is a complex interplay where biotic and abiotic processes interact to transform and transfer N in an ecosystem. In general, one can simplify by classifying terrestrial N cycles all over the world in two groups: ‘tight’ N cycles and ‘open’ N cycles. The ‘tight’ N cycle is characterized by its high effic...
متن کاملGreenhouse gas emissions from tropical forest degradation: an underestimated source
BACKGROUND The degradation of forests in developing countries, particularly those within tropical and subtropical latitudes, is perceived to be an important contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. However, the impacts of forest degradation are understudied and poorly understood, largely because international emission reduction programs have focused on deforestation, which is easier to d...
متن کاملForest Carbon Storage 1 a Summary of the Greenhouse Gas Implications of Forest Carbon Storage
This chapter describes the development of material-specific estimates of changes in forest carbon storage in EPA's Waste Reduction Model (WARM). It summarizes the approach used to estimate changes in forest carbon storage in managed forests resulting from source reduction and recycling of wood and paper products. Forests absorb (i.e., sequester) atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) and store it in...
متن کاملDeadwood in Forest Ecosystems
Until recently, deadwood was perceived as a negative element of forest ecosystems, that indicates “mismanagement, negligence, and wastefulness” of the applied forest management (Stachura et al., 2007). It was regarded as a potential source of biotic pests, mainly insects (Bütler, 2003; Marage & Lemperiere, 2005), to remaining trees in a forest as well as to adjacent stands (Pasierbek et al., 20...
