Land Use Change Uptakes And Emissions
From Open Risk Manual
Definition
Land Use Change Uptakes And Emissions. Carbon uptakes and emissions (CO2, CO and CH4) originate from carbon stock changes caused by land use change and land use. This sub-category includes biogenic carbon exchanges from deforestation, road construction or other soil activities (including soil carbon emissions). For native forests, all related CO2 emissions are included and modelled under this sub-category (including connected soil emissions, and products derived from native forests and residues), while their CO2 uptake is excluded.
