G. Marland et al., FOREST BIOMASS BASED MITIGATION STRATEGIES - DOES THE TIMING OF CARBON REDUCTIONS MATTER/, Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 27, 1997, pp. 213-226
Many of the strategies proposed for using forest managememt to mitigat
e the increasing concentration of atmospheric CO2 are characterized by
C emissions reductions which are not uniform over time. A simple mode
l of the carbon budgets of different forest management schemes illustr
ates the possibilities and poses the question whether the timing of em
issions reductions matters.
