The conservation, restoration, and improved management of terrestrial forests significantly
contributes to mitigate climate change and its impacts, as well as providing numerous co …

Mangrove forests, seagrass meadows and tidal saltmarshes are vegetated coastal
ecosystems that accumulate and store large quantities of carbon in their sediments. Many …

Carbon offsets from voluntary avoided-deforestation projects are generated on the basis of
performance in relation to ex ante deforestation baselines. We examined the effects of 26 …

Transformative governance is key to addressing the global environmental crisis. We explore
how transformative governance of complex biodiversity–climate–society interactions can be …

Forests have considerable potential to mitigate anthropogenic climate change through
carbon sequestration, as well as provide society with substantial co-benefits. However …

Nature‐based climate solutions are a vital component of many climate mitigation strategies,
including California's, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2045. Most carbon offsets …

California operates a large forest carbon offsets program that credits carbon stored in forests
across the continental United States and parts of coastal Alaska. These credits can be sold …

Improved forest management (IFM) has the potential to remove and store large quantities of
carbon from the atmosphere. Around the world, 293 IFM offset projects have produced 11 …

In an increasingly flammable world, wildfire is altering the terrestrial carbon balance.
However, the degree to which novel wildfire regimes disrupt biological function remains …

Land-based carbon removals, specifically afforestation/reforestation and bioenergy with
carbon capture and storage (BECCS), vary widely in 1.5° C and 2° C scenarios generated …
