The research presented here is particularly concerned with these protocols ; use of the USDA Forest Service's Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) data to describe forest conditions, ownership, and management scenarios, and is oriented towards providing regulators and other interested parties with an objective comparison of the options, uncertainties, and opportunities available to offset GHG emissions through forest management. Chapters focus on the protocols for recognizing forest carbon offsets in the California carbon cap-and-trade program, as described in the Compliance Offset Protocol; U.S. Forest Projects (California Air Resources Board, 2011). Readers will discover the protocols used for quantifying the offset of GHG emissions through forest-related project activity. As such, its scope includes a review of the current methods used in voluntary and compliance forest protocols, an evaluation of the metrics used to assign baselines and determine additionality in the forest offset protocols, an examination of key quantitative and qualitative components and assumptions, and a discussion of opportunities for modifying forest offset protocols, in light of the rapidly changing GHG-related policy and regulatory environment. Finally, the report also discusses accounting and policy issues that create potential barriers to participation in the California cap-and-trade program, and overall programmatic additionality in addressing the needs of a mitigation strategy. . 000780544 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed April 05, 2017). 000780544 650_0 $$aCarbon offsetting$$zCalifornia. 000780544 650_0 $$aCarbon sequestration$$zCalifornia. 000780544 650_0 $$aGreenhouse gas mitigation$$zCalifornia. 000780544 650_0 $$aClearcutting$$zCalifornia. 000780544 650_0 $$aForest management$$zCalifornia. 000780544 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319524337 000780544 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in environmental science. 000780544 852__ $$bebk 000780544 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-52434-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000780544 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:780544$$pGLOBAL_SET 000780544 980__ $$aEBOOK 000780544 980__ $$aBIB 000780544 982__ $$aEbook 000780544 983__ $$aOnline 000780544 994__ $$a92$$bISE
