Description:
This research plan provides new knowledge on the range of possibilities--available by managing forest differently--to store more carbon (C) to meet the climate-change action plant (Clinton and Gore 1993) target of returning emission of greenhouse gases in the United States to 1990 emission by the year 2000. pecific goals will evaluate effects of forest management strategies on stand-scale C conservation and sequestration, improve the quality and applicability of stand-scale C budgets and methods, and blend research programs within the Corvallis EPA and PNW labs.
