DocumentTowards a development strategy for the wood processing industry in the Congo Basin 2013
Also available in:
This White paper brings together a series of reflections and suggestions for the formulation and implementation of development strategies for the forest industry in the Congo Basin. It is dynamic in nature and will therefore need regular revision so that relevant information can be kept up to date and any progress taken into account. -

ArticleFlow analysis of industrial wood to determine cumulative changes in carbon stocks in wood products
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.Carbon storage in harvested wood products (HWP) is an internationally recognised measure to mitigate climate change. However, due to lack of reliable and transparent data on production and trade of HWP, carbon accounting in HWP is complicated. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change provides guidelines for reporting countries on how to estimate carbon stocks and their changes in HWP with the use of default or country-specific data as well as accounting methods so that countries can choose an accounting method depending on data availability.The main goal of this work is to analyze the flow of industrial wood in Lithuania and to determine the carbon stocks and their quantitative changes in wood products. We estimated carbon storage in HWP by applying different methods and compared the results. The estimates for Lithuania showed that carbon stock in HWP differs significantly when different methods are applied. The annual carbon inflow and the annual change in carbon stocks are significantly higher (92%) when the analysis of wood flow was used to the accounting of these indicators, compared with statistics data on the production of wood products. This difference was due to the classification of domestically produced raw timber and generated wood waste into country-specific categories of industrial wood products. The increase in the change in carbon stocks was also due to the adjustment of country-specific half-lives. Keywords: Carbon storage, Harvested wood product, Climate change ID:3486859
