Aboveground carbon loss in natural and managed tropical forests from 2000 to 2012

Aboveground carbon loss in natural and managed tropical forests from 2000 to 2012

Tropical forests provide global climate regulation ecosystem services and their clearing is a significant source of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and resultant radiative forcing of climate change. However, consensus on pan-tropical forest carbon dynamics is lacking. We present a new e...
