The potential of REDD+ for carbon sequestration in tropical forests : supply curves for carbon storage for Kalimantan, Indonesia

Indrajaya, Yonky; Van der Werf, Edwin; Weikard, Hans-Peter - 2015

We study the potential of tropical multi-age multi-species forests for sequestering carbon in response to financial incentives from REDD+. The use of reduced impact logging techniques (RIL) allows a forest owner to apply for carbon credits whereas the use of conventional logging techniques (CL)...

Carbon Sequestration With Reforestations and Biodiversity - Scenic Values

Caparros, Alejandro - 2015

This paper presents an optimal control model to analyze reforestations with two different species, including commercial values, carbon sequestration and biodiversity or scenic values. We solve the model qualitatively with general functions and discuss the implications of partial or total...

Forestry and the Carbon Market Response to Stabilize Climate

Tavoni, Massimo - 2015

This paper investigates the potential contribution of forestry management in meeting a CO2 stabilization policy of 550 ppmv by 2100. In order to assess the optimal response of the carbon market to forest sequestration we couple two global models. An energy-economy-climate model for the study of...

Reducing deforestation and trading emissions : economic implications for the post-Kyoto carbon market

Anger, Niels (contributor); Sathaye, Jayant A. (contributor) - 2008

This paper quantitatively assesses the economic implications of crediting carbon abatement from reduced deforestation for the emissions market in 2020 by linking a numerical equilibrium model of the global carbon market with a dynamic partial equilibrium model of the forestry sector. We find...
