aboveground and belowground carbon in
addition to values for foregone sequestration. GTAP contains
significantly more forested land than either of the
other two data sources. When applying the FPF reduces
the amount of forest converted, the difference is made up
with land covered by young, thin trees. In Figure 2, this
land type is called Young Forest-Shrub (YFS). The forest
emissions factor for YFS is based on the relative height of
forest stands in each state compared to shrubland. The
relative tree heights for each state were derived from
Pflugmacher et al. [29] and Buis [30]. When we apply the
FPF, between 20 and 22% of converted land shifts from
forests to YFS for all feedstocks.
