Description:
Forests play a prominent role in the global C cycle. ccupying one-third of the earth's land area, forest vegetation nd soils contain about 60% of the total terrestrial C. Forest biomass productivity can be enhanced by management practices,, which suggests that by this means, forests could store more C globally and thereby slow the increase the atmospheric CO2. o address this, a global database of information was compiled for 94 forested nations to assess quantitatively the potential of forestry practices to sequester C.
