Potential carbon dioxide emission reductions from avoided grassland conversion in the northern Great Plains
Abstract Protection of lands threatened with conversion to agriculture can reduce carbon emissions. Until recently, most climate change mitigation incentive programs for avoided conversion have focused on forested ecosystems. We applied the Avoided Conversion of Grasslands and Shrublands v.1.0 (ACoG...
