Carbon dynamics related to tree planting on new areas in Norway

Holtsmark, Bjart - 2016

Extensive tree planting on new areas has been suggested as a climate policy measure in Norway. This paper presents some … preliminary calculations related to carbon dynamics of such a measure when the tree planting takes place on areas with relative … young birch forests. The main finding, which is robust to several sensitivity analyses, is that after the tree planting …
