Aims of the workshop
In 2009, FFPRI set up a new network of forest carbon dynamics in East Asia region from Siberia to equatorial areas. This network facilitates collection of new data relation to carbon dynamics in broad range of East Asian forests. The aims of the workshop are refinement of our knowledge using network data as follows:
- Annual NPP and carbon stock data
- Forest structure, biodiversity and dynamics
- Monitoring deforestation and degradation using satellite images in relating to REDD activities
- Interaction between human activities and ecosystem services in forest ecosystems
The Committees of the WS expect participants to input some above-mentioned information from following 3 projects.
- “Advancement of East Asia Forest Dynamics Plots Network -Monitoring forest carbon cycling for the development of climate change adaptation-” [GERANI, MOEJ: FY2009-2013; PL: Dr Tamotsu SATO]
- “Development of the forest degradation index and the carbon emission estimation method using PALSAR data” [GERF, MOEJ: FY2008-2010 PL: Dr Yoshiyuki KIYONO]
- “The conservation measures of swamp forest through sustainable use of ecological resources by local communities” [GERF, MOEJ: FY2009-2011 PL: Dr Ryuichi TABUCHI]
