    The role of reforestation in carbon sequestration

    In the United States (U.S.), the maintenance of forest cover is a legal mandate for federally managed forest lands. More broadly, reforestation following harvesting, recent or historic disturbances can enhance...

    A Tale of Two Forest Carbon Assessments in the Eastern United States: Forest Use Versus Cover as a Metric of Change

    The dynamics of land-use practices (for example, forest versus settlements) is often a major driver of changes in terrestrial carbon (C). As the management and conservation of forest land uses are considered a...

    Attribution of net carbon change by disturbance type across forest lands of the conterminous United States

    Locating terrestrial sources and sinks of carbon (C) will be critical to develo** strategies that contribute to the climate change mitigation goals of the Paris Agreement. Here we present spatially resolved ...

    Monitoring Network Confirms Land Use Change is a Substantial Component of the Forest Carbon Sink in the eastern United States

    Quantifying forest carbon (C) stocks and stock change within a matrix of land use (LU) and LU change is a central component of large-scale forest C monitoring and reporting practices prescribed by the Intergov...

    Net carbon flux of dead wood in forests of the Eastern US

    Downed dead wood (DDW) in forest ecosystems is a C pool whose net flux is governed by a complex of natural and anthropogenic processes and is critical to the management of the entire forest C pool. As empirica...

    Forest production dynamics along a wood density spectrum in eastern US forests

    Emerging plant economics spectrum theories were confirmed across temperate forest systems of the eastern US where the use of a forest stand’s mean wood density elucidated forest volume and biom...
