Background
Welcome
The Global Comparative Study on REDD+ provides this forest carbon database as part of the public domain. The database supports development of national and subnational monitoring, reporting and verification of REDD+ activities. We invite all practitioners who have forest inventory data, manage permanent sample plots or conduct research on carbon stocks to participate in this initiative.
This system allows you to account for five carbon pools: aboveground tree biomass, belowground tree biomass, dead woody debris, understorey and soil. You can also profile your carbon stock data with supporting information: site, land cover, climate and soil. If you want to upload your entire inventory of data, this carbon database will automatically calculate the carbon stock in that ecosystem.
Our system offers these advantages:
| 1. | We help reduce duplicate data collection by making available data that has already been collected. This reduces costs. |
| 2. | We provide easy access to data that cannot be readily replicated, such as large surveys that are too expensive to replicate. |
| 3. | We help you compare carbon stocks across land use types provided by other contributors. |
CIFOR's multiyear Global Comparative Study on REDD+ aims to inform policy makers, practitioners and donors about what works in reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries (REDD+).
