Sustainable Carbon Management in Pacific Northwest Forests

This evaluation outlines the significance of carbon management in Pacific Northwest (PNW) forests, emphasizing their role as carbon sinks due to dense biomass and long-lived conifers. It covers key practices like reforestation, thinning, and prescribed burning, alongside advanced carbon accounting techniques such as remote sensing and modeling. The framework addresses challenges like climate disturbances, soil carbon uncertainties, and policy issues, while promoting adaptive silviculture and...
