Can we produce carbon and climate neutral forest bioenergy?

A Repo, JP Tuovinen, J Liski - Gcb Bioenergy, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Harvesting branches, stumps and unmercantable tops, in addition to stem wood, decreases
the carbon input to the soil and consequently reduces the forest carbon stock. We examine …
