Decision Analysis of Forest Management Based on Carbon Sequestration Model

Abstract

This paper to determine how much carbon dioxide a forest and its products can be expected to sequester over time, building a CASA model to calculate Net Primary Productivity (NPP) of the forest and transfer NPP to carbon sink. Then prove that harvest trees because young forests have stronger carbon sequestration capacity than old forests. Finally, determine that the most effective forest management plan at sequestering carbon dioxide is to harvest old trees and plant new trees at the optimal time provided by model.
