Carbon sequestration of Chinese forests from 2010 to 2060 spatiotemporal dynamics and its regulatory strategies

Weixiang Cai et al.

Summary: Forestation is crucial for mitigating global climate change, and existing forests in China play a significant role in carbon sequestration. The carbon sequestration rate of Chinese forests is expected to peak near 2035 and effective management strategies will be needed to maintain a high level of carbon sequestration. However, the contribution of new forestation to additional carbon sequestration is minimal.

Relationship between the geographical environment and the forest carbon sink capacity in China based on an individual-tree growth-rate model

Hanyue Zhang et al.

Summary: This study constructed an individual-tree annual growth-rate model to explore the effects of genetic characteristics and the environment on tree growth and the relationship between forest carbon sink capacity and the geographical environment. The results showed that tree species and size were the dominant factors that affected the growth rate, with temperature being the most important environmental factor. Additionally, there was a significant correlation between the geographical environment and forest carbon sink capacity.

Current and future carbon stocks of natural forests in China

Shiyin Chen et al.

Summary: Natural regeneration is the most cost-effective and straightforward strategy to mitigate climate change. China's natural forests, accounting for 71% of the forested area, have a carbon stock of 9.40 +/- 1.45 Pg C in 2010. When naturally regenerated to the over-mature stage, they have the potential to sequestrate 8.67 +/- 6.93 Pg C in the next two centuries, representing 48% of the natural forest ecosystem's carbon carrying capacity in China.

Managing existing forests can mitigate climate change

Pekka E. Kauppi et al.

Summary: Planting new forests and better management of existing forests are both important measures to mitigate climate change. A study in northern Europe found that despite an increase in timber harvests, the forest carbon stock accelerated. This suggests that forest management can support both increased timber harvests and forest carbon stock.

Optimizing rotation lengths for maximizing carbon balance of larch plantations in northeast China

Lingbo Dong et al.

Summary: Achieving carbon neutral targets is an important commitment for China in mitigating climate change. This study developed a tool to analyze the effects of alternative accounting strategies for carbon emissions on the optimal rotation lengths and profitability of planted forests. The results showed that optimal rotation lengths were influenced by site index, planting density, discount rate, and carbon price.

Influencing factors of the supply-demand relationships of carbon sequestration and grain provision in China: Does land use matter the most?

Fan Xia et al.

Summary: This study examined the impact of land use and land use change on the supply-demand mismatches of carbon and grain in different provinces of China. The results showed that social factors and natural factors made different contributions to the supply-demand imbalances. The study highlighted the importance of protecting cropland for food security and prioritizing carbon emission reductions for carbon balance.

Estimating Carbon Sequestration Potential of Forest and Its Influencing Factors at Fine Spatial-Scales: A Case Study of Lushan City in Southern China

Geng He et al.

Summary: This study assessed the carbon stock and predicted sequestration potential of Lushan City in southern China. The results showed that Lushan forest will continue to function as a carbon sink for the next fifty years, with the carbon stock expected to rise to 2.15 x 10(6) t by 2070. The study also highlighted the significant influence of site characteristics on the carbon sequestration potential.

Spatially explicit optimization of the forest management tradeoff between timber production and carbon sequestration

Wenwen Deng et al.

Summary: Forest farms play a crucial role in landscape-scale forest management in China, aiming to maximize timber production and ecosystem services. This study developed a planning model to optimize forest management approaches, with a focus on carbon sequestration. The results indicate that the spatial allocation of different management practices and forest restructuring are key to improving forest carbon stocks.

How the future of the global forest sink depends on timber demand, forest management, and carbon policies

Adam Daigneault et al.

Summary: Deforestation has contributed to increased greenhouse gas emissions, but efforts to slow deforestation and regrow forests have turned them into carbon sinks. The management of forests, including aging and silvicultural inputs, plays a critical role in future carbon fluxes and should be considered by climate models.

Spatial-temporal evolution and influencing factors of net carbon sink efficiency in Chinese cities under the background of carbon neutrality

Aoxiang Zhang et al.

Summary: This study examines the net carbon sink efficiency of Chinese cities and identifies its influencing factors. The results show an increasing trend in net carbon sink efficiency over the study period, with spatial characteristics showing higher efficiency at both ends and lower efficiency in the middle from south to north. Various measures, such as promoting economic growth and technological progress, can be applied to promote net carbon sink efficiency. However, the increase in urban population may decrease efficiency. The study also reveals a significant spatial autocorrelation and spillover effect in the net carbon sink efficiency of Chinese cities.

A climate risk analysis of Earth's forests in the 21st century

William R. L. Anderegg et al.

Summary: Forests on Earth are crucial for mitigating climate change and supporting biodiversity, but they are also at risk from climate change. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of climate risks for forests worldwide, using multiple approaches to model carbon, biodiversity, and disturbance risks. The findings highlight higher risks for certain forests, including southern boreal forests and those in western North America and parts of the Amazon.

Estimating the optimal internal carbon prices for balancing forest wood production and carbon sequestration: The case of northeast China

Lingbo Dong et al.

Summary: This study proposes an effective method to estimate the optimal internal carbon price, using logistic regression of carbon sequestration on carbon price. The results show that the estimated optimal internal carbon prices decrease slightly with increasing discount rates and complexities of planning problems, but increase significantly with increasing time horizons. The economic benefits of net carbon sequestration accounted for a majority of total benefits when estimated optimal internal carbon prices were utilized.

Summary: This study quantified the impact of carbon and timber prices on economic returns and forest management using a mixed-integer linear programming model. The results show that maximizing timber production and carbon sequestration leads to the best economic returns, highlighting the sensitivity of harvest scheduling, harvest age, and NPV to carbon and timber prices.
