arbcombo -- Forest Greenhouse Gas Inventory Symposium
Posted: 15 Oct 2009 13:23:39
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) and the Interagency Forest Workgroup (IFWG) invite you to participate in a Forest Inventory Symposium on October 19, 2009. The Air Resources Board staff developed a statewide greenhouse gas inventory that accounts for emissions from all major economic sectors in the State, including the forest sector. The 2004 inventory was used in the AB 32 Scoping Plan adopted by the Air Resources Board in 2008. The Scoping Plan acknowledged that additional research studies and methods would improve the statewide estimates of carbon sequestration from California’s forests and rangelands, as well as estimates of carbon stock in forests. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a series of presentations from experts in the field to cover key technical issues related to forest sector accounting and identify opportunities for improving the quantification of current and future California forest carbon stocks, carbon balance, and land-atmosphere greenhouse gas exchange. ARB and IFWG welcome your participation. The Symposium will be held at the following time and location: Date: Monday, October 19, 2009 Time: 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM (PDT) Location: Byron Sher Auditorium Address: Cal/EPA Headquarters 1001 “I” Street (2nd floor) Sacramento, California A new Symposium agenda is currently posted at ARB’s Climate Change and Forest website: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/forestry/forestry.htm. Speaker presentations will be posted just prior to the Symposium.
