    Wood Biomass Sector in Kosovo 2015
    Also available in:

    Wood as a fuel is one of the most important energy sources in Kosovo’s households. For a better understanding of the wood biomass sector in Kosovo, different actorswere surveyed about available supply and current demand. The surveys are part of the wider activities implemented in the project “Support to Implementation of the Forest Policy and Strategy in Kosovo”(GCP/KOS/005/FIN). The project aims to increase the contribution of the forestry sector to the national economy through sustainable use of forest resources, while accounting for the multiple demands placed onforest resources. These demands include economic, social and environmental benefits, as well as the contribution to climate change mitigation.

    Using Prosopis as an energy source for refugees and host communities in Djibouti, and controlling its rapid spread 2018
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    FAO, in collaboration with Djibouti’s Ministry of Agriculture, Water, Fishery, Livestock and Marine Resources and Ministry of Housing, Urban Planning and Environment, and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, conducted the study presented in this report to assess the use of Prosopis woody biomass as a source of energy and options for increasing the efficiency of woodfuel supply chains. The study used socio-economic data collected through interviews, focus-group discussions, a desk review and a field visit, and a remote sensing analysis of Prosopis distribution, combined with field data, in four areas of interest in Djibouti: Douda, As Eyla, Tadjourah, and Hanlé. The report includes: • an assessment of challenges in meeting energy demand in displacement settings in Djibouti; • data on the distribution of Prosopis in the country and the quantity of standing Prosopis biomass at selected sites (which are also the country’s main Prosopis areas); and • an analysis of the economic potential of processing Prosopis woody biomass into briquettes and charcoal.

    Mangrove carbon estimator and monitoring guide 2016
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    Mangroves exist in the inter-tidal zone of sheltered tropical and subtropical coasts, and in Southeast Asia are home to 42 tree and shrub species found nowhere else (Giesen et al. 2006). These ‘true mangrove species’ and other associate species are adapted to marine and brackish conditions, and are capable of sequestering and storing large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide. This guide outlines a simple, low-cost methodology for measuring mangrove carbon stocks and monitoring mangroves in def ined project areas. The methodology for measuring mangrove carbon stocks was designed in collaboration with Yale University and was published in PLOS ONE journal in January 2017<.i>. This is the third in a series of four publications intended to be used in conjunction in establishing sustainable financing for mangrove protection in Asia. The titles and links of the four publications are as follows: :
