Assessment of CO2 fluxes and effects of possible climate changes on forests in Estonia.

Assessment of CO2 fluxes and effects of possible climate changes on forests in Estonia.

The present study is the first attempt to carry out an inventory of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes in the forests of Estonia. The emission and uptake of CO as a result of forest management, forest conversion and abandonment of cultivated lands in Estonia was estimated. The removal of GHG by...
