Forest transition in Vietnam and its environmental impacts

Abstract: This study assesses the presence of a forest transition -that is, a shift from net deforestation to net reforestation -in Vietnam during the 1990s, and describes its key attributes relevant for global environmental change issues. Using Fuzzy Kappa and other indicators, we compared forest cover estimates and spatial patterns from global and national land cover maps from the early and late 1990s, and compiled other available statistics for years before and after that period. This showed that a forest transition … Show more

“…Our results indicate that afforestation and conservation projects in southwest China can have a remarkable impact on vegetation cover and carbon stocks, which is in line with other research 2,[30][31][32][33][34][35] . Analysis shows that the total area of conservation projects impacts on leaf area index (LAI) and aboveground biomass carbon (ABC), with strong positive trends in counties of high conservation efforts and corresponding weaker trends in counties of little efforts.…”

“…Như đã đề cập, Việt Nam là một trong số ít quốc gia Châu Á có mức tịnh tiến diện tích rừng, do đó Việt Nam được đánh giá là đang ở giai đoạn thứ tư trong đường cong diễn biến rừng (de jong và các cộng sự , Bộ NN&PTNT 2007a, Meyfroidt và Lambin 2008, tức là diện tích rừng đang tăng.…”

“…Diện tích rừng suy kiệt tăng và mặc dù diện | 59 tích rừng trồng mới tăng mật độ rừng nói chung vẫn giảm. Vì vậy, trữ lượng carbon thấp (Meyfroidt và Lambin 2008). Kết quả này cho thấy chỉ đơn giản tăng diện tích nhờ trồng rừng thì vẫn chưa đủ để phục hồi các chức năng sinh thái khác nhau và các dịch vụ của rừng đặc biệt là về trữ lượng carbon (Meyfroidt và Lambin 2008).…”
