Milestones & Expected Results

This project will provide :

• annual NPP and carbon stock data from a broad range of East Asian forest sites
• knowledge of how climate and soil moisture status control carbon cycling
• information on the long-term behavior of forest productivity and carbon fixation
• improved knowledge of the implications of carbon sinks for climate change mitigation and adaptation policies in East Asia

Expected Outcomes

• Archive forest carbon dynamics data with high accuracy in East Asia
• Establishment collaboration network for data sharing
• Input scientific data to international framework such as IPCC and IPBES
• Development measuring method for national forest carbon monitoring
• Share knowledge among counterparts through WS and seminar
