research on the forests' role in climate change. we begin with a review of global forest resources. we then discuss carbon stocks in forests and global dynamics, showing that south america accounts for 28.76% of the world's total stored carbon, with a total of 187,653 million tons (mt)....

a North Carolina-based forest protection organization and principal organizer of the Platform. “Living forests are our best hope for removing carbon from the atmosphere; and yet the rate of forest destruction from logging in this country is among the highest on Earth. To avoid cli...
Forest-based climate mitigation may occur through conserving and enhancing the carbon sink and through reducing greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation. Yet the inclusion of forests in international climate agreements has been complex, often considered a secondary mitigation option. In the context of ...
This paper develops the FOR-DICE model to explore the potential role of the global forest in reducing climate change. It presents a basic framework for assessing the boreal, tropical, and temperate forests as both a source of renewable energy and a resource to sequester and store carbon. The ...
We examine the corresponding links to changes in the use of forest ecosystems. We identified factors that promote or prevent the use of sustainable coping strategies related to forest ecosystems.关键词: Climate hazards Community resilience Coping strategy Livelihood Adaptation to climate change Local ...
• Climate change could result in "deepening poverty,deteriorating11(恶化)public health, and social conflict" among African forest-dependent communities The IUFRO assessment will be considered by delegates at the eighth session of the UN Forum on Forests, which has the objective of promoting the ...
Biomass from the forest sector can be an important source of renewable energy and can contribute to climate change mitigation and bioenergy development. However, the removal of biomass from forests has significant impacts on the forest ecosystem. For instance, it modifies soil litter which is particu...
