The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007 is to be shared, in two equal parts, between the Intergovernmental Panel

  • n Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore Jr. for their efforts to

build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change. The Norwegian Nobel Committee Oslo, 12 October 2007

  • Изменение запаса углерода – мера

эффективности мероприятий в лесном секторе

  • НЕТТО-СТОК = РОСТ ЗАПАСА УГЛЕРОДА
  • НЕТТО-ИСТОЧНИК = УМЕНЬШЕНИЕ ЗАПАСА

– Большая часть научных публикаций рассматривает именно изменение запасов углерода – Перевод в единицы СО2 сделан для сопоставимости с другими секторами

Вырубка лесов в тропиках и рост лесных площадей и запасов углерода в лесах большинства развитых стран – основные факторы изменения углеродного баланса лесов мира в 90-е годы. Выбросы в атмосферу связанные с вырубкой тропических лесов оцениваются в 5,8 Gt CO2 / год

Main Conclusions – Основные выводы

INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON CLIMATE CHANGE (IPCC)

  • Measures in the forest sector can contribute significantly to mitigation

potential in many regions

– Меры в лесном секторе могут внести значительный вклад в программы смягчения последствий изменения климата во многих регионах

  • Advantages include low costs of some measures, long duration, good

potential for integration with conservation policies and sustainable development goals

– Преимущества мер в лесном секторе включают низкие затраты и длительность действия стока СО2, а также возможности интеграции с мерами по охране окружающей среды и рациональному использованию природных ресурсов

  • Selection of effective measures depends on the target time frame аnd

regional conditions

– Выбор эффективных мер зависит от целевого срока и конкретных услобий региона

  • In the near term (1-20 years) - conservation measures appear most

effective including preventing deforestation, extending harvest rotation, protecting high-biomass forests from disturbance

– для ближайшего будущего наиболее эффективна – охрана лесов, включая предотвращение рубок в тропиках, удлиннение оборота рубки в лесах с активным ведением хозяйства, охрана лесов с высокими запасами биомассы от любых нарушений

Conclusions

  • The role of Russian forests in the global carbon cycle and

the mitigation potential of the Russian forest sector remain uncertain

  • Information on land cover is improving but

– Disagreement among maps is substantial – Validation remains a challenge – Assessment of strengths and weaknesses is needed

  • Remotely sensed data provides a rich source of information

from which accurate and spatially consistent results can be extracted but several critical data needs remain:

– Capacity to utilize available data – Methods for extracting useful information from data –
