Targeting area and comparing the effect of different land use/land cover (LULC) scenarios on greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission reduction (Case study: Hyrcanian forests in Iran)
Abstract:Background
Because the greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions are known to be strongly influenced by land use/land cover (LULC) change, reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation (REDD) mechanism has attracted much attention as a strategy for understanding how different LULC scenarios effect on the GHGs emissions. Transition to other LULC types is one of the major challenges of Iran's Hyrcanian forests in Golestan province. To consider how LULC change scenarios affect GHGs, REDD project was executed in … Show more
