Potential of land-based climate change mitigation strategies on abandoned cropland
Natural revegetation of abandoned cropland in biodiversity priority areas and afforestation and growth of bioenergy crop in other areas could achieve a climate change mitigation potential of 0.8–4.0 GtCO2-eq. per year, according to bottom-up estimates based on biomass yields and life-cycle emissions...
