Evaluating the mitigation effectiveness of forests managed for conservation versus commodity production using an Australian example

Original language description

Forests are critical for biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation: reducing emissions, increasing removals, and providing resilient ecosystems with stable long-term carbon storage. However, evaluating the mitigation effectiveness of forests managed for conservation versus commodity production has been long debated. We assessed factors influencing evaluation of mitigation effectiveness--land area, time horizon, reference level, carbon stock longevity--and tested the outcomes using analyses of carbon dynamics from an Australian ecosystem. Results showed that landscape scale accounting using carbon carrying capacity as the reference level and assessed over a series of time horizons best enables explicit evaluation of mitigation benefits. Time horizons need to differentiate between near-term emissions reduction targets (2030 and 2050), relative longevity of carbon stocks in different reservoirs, and long-term impacts on atmospheric CO2 concentration. Greatest mitigation benefits derive fro
