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.
