Global Forest Carbon 1st Edition

Capture the pulse of the planet’s green lungs with Global Forest Carbon, 1st Edition by Runsheng Yin — an essential, modern guide for anyone tackling the science and policy of forests in a warming world.

This authoritative volume opens with clear explanations of how forests store and cycle carbon, then advances through contemporary methods for measuring and modeling forest carbon stocks at local to global scales. Readers will find accessible coverage of field methods, remote sensing and GIS approaches, carbon budgeting, and the role of forests across tropical, temperate and boreal regions. The book also synthesizes implications for climate policy, carbon accounting, and landscape-level management strategies that matter to scientists, land managers, and decision-makers.

Designed for both specialists and informed practitioners, Global Forest Carbon balances rigorous science with practical insight. Case examples highlight regional variability—from humid tropical basins to northern boreal stands—while chapters on monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) and carbon sequestration strategies provide tools for implementing climate-smart forestry and national inventory work.

Why this book matters: it translates complex carbon dynamics into actionable knowledge that supports climate mitigation, conservation planning and sustainable forestry. Ideal for researchers, graduate students, policy analysts and environmental professionals, Runsheng Yin’s work is a timely resource for anyone engaged in global forest assessments or national carbon strategies.
