A sourcebook of methods and procedures for monitoring and reporting anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and removals caused by deforestation, gains and losses of carbon stocks in forests remaining forests, and forestation
This sourcebook is the outcome of an ad-hoc REDD working group of Global Observation of Forest and Land Cover Dynamics (GOFC-GOLD), a technical panel of the Global Terrestrial Observing System. GOFC-GOLD provides an independent expert platform for international cooperation to formulate scientific consensus and provide technical input to the discussions. This first draft version provides a consensus perspective from the global community of earth observation and carbon experts on methodological issues relating to quantifying the green house gas impacts of implementing activities to reduce emissions from deforestation and degradation in developing countries (REDD). Based on the current status of negotiations and UNFCCC approved methodologies, this sourcebook aims to provide additional explanation, clarification, and methodologies to support REDD early actions and readiness mechanisms for building national REDD monitoring system. Respective communities are invited to provide comments and feedback to evolve a refined technical guidelines document in the future.
