In this paper, we use an integrated assessment model to examine the implications of not recognizing, and partially recognizing forest carbon in climate policy. Specifically, we investigate the impact of an asymmetric carbon policy that recognizes emissions from fossil fuels while ignoring...

This paper proposes a ranking of the countries where forest carbon sequestration is the most cost-efficient among 166 countries for which data are available. Taking into account the main cost factors leads to a more nuanced ranking of the countries to be favoured for cost-efficient forest carbon...

Forest literature uses both continuous and discrete time models to study forest management problems, and when carbon sequestration benefits are considered, the results obtained in both approaches are not always equivalent.This issue is relevant from a policy point of view if credits are to be...

The Carbon Fund of the Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) is set up to pilot performance-based payment systems for emission reductions generated from REDD+ efforts in developing countries. The piloting efforts include setting a good practice benchmark for robust carbon quantification that...

In the current paper we examine the role of forest carbon sequestration benefits in optimal forest management. When carbon benefits are considered not only the forested area is relevant, but also the flow of carbon between land and the atmosphere through the carbon cycle. To account for all...

subvention on the net present value (NPV) for a defined forestry plantation is investigated. The added value of carbon … sequestration to forestry investment is also examined using the UK Forestry Commission carbon model. Extending the typical … government funded grants for afforestation significantly improve the NPV on forestry investment. Carbon sequestration is shown to …
