Carbon sequestration potential of tree planting in China
L. Yao, T. Liu, et al.
China's ambitious tree planting initiatives are set to play a pivotal role in achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. This research unveils a machine learning framework to assess tree growth suitability, revealing that planting 44.7 billion trees could sequester 5.9 ± 0.5 PgC. Conducted by notable researchers including Ling Yao and Pete Smith, this study highlights tree densification as a viable carbon sequestration strategy.
