Deciduous afforestation as a natural climate solution: impacts on biomass and carbon sequestration in boreal forests of Canada

Simulations such as these highlight the importance of modelling and consideration of different planting scenarios in decision-making to ensure successful resource allocation. They also demonstrate the potential of nature-based adaptation solutions projects, and the role deciduous afforestation can play in provision of habitat, modifying wildfire risk and northern boreal biomass and timber supply.

Abstract

Simulations such as these highlight the importance of modelling and consideration of different planting scenarios in decision-making to ensure successful resource allocation. They also demonstrate the potential of nature-based adaptation solutions projects, and the role deciduous afforestation can play in provision of habitat, modifying wildfire risk and northern boreal biomass and timber supply.
