of forest soils: 1) mineral forest soils, and 2) organic forest soils. The organic C content of mineral forest soils (to 1 m depth) typically varies between 20 to over 300 tonnes C ha-1. depending on the forest type and climatic conditions (Jobbagy and Jackson 2000). Globally, mineral forest soils
Forest Land is partitioned into two sub categories and the guidance and methodologies are given separately in two sections: • Section 4.2 Forest Land Remaining Forest Land • Section 4.3 Land Converted to Forest Land Section 4.2 covers the methodology that applies to lands that have been Forest Land for more than the transition
CDM project activities relating to forestry are limited to reforestation and afforestation projects for the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol (2008-2012). Such projects, in addition to mitigation benefits could also have benefits for biodiversity and environmental conservation.

We developed the Forest Carbon Management Menu to identify a range of potential actions that adapt forests to a changing climate and benefit forest carbon by reducing climate-related carbon losses, sustaining forest health, or enhancing future productivity of forest ecosystems. This menu is intended to be
