Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of forestry carbon neutrality, and specifically relates to a method for calculating carbon emissions during the entire life cycle of forest landscape afforestation. Background Art

[0002] Carbon emissions refer to the emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases produced by human activities, which have a huge impact on the global climate. Reducing carbon emissions is a key measure to address the climate crisis and a necessary condition for achieving sustainable development.

[0003] Forestry development not only plays a role in mitigating climate change, but also has comprehensive ecological value and social benefits. Forest landscape refers to the natural landscape composed of forest ecosystems, which includes the distribution, structure, function and dynamic characteristics of forests. The purpose of forest landscape afforestation is to improve the structure and function of forest landscapes, improve the productivity and ecological benefits of forest resources, protect biodiversity and water and soil resources through artificial intervention, so as to increase forest coverage, protect biodiversity, regulate climate change, and provide ecological services. It is divided into new afforestation and low-efficiency forest transformation, including the construction of national reserve forests, urban or suburban forest parks and forest health care base landscape afforestation, low-efficiency artificial forest transformation and low-efficiency ecological public welfare forest transformation.

[0004] Inefficient forests include inefficient artificial forests and inefficient ecological public welfare forests. The transformation of inefficient forests refers to the general term for forestry measures such as changing forest stand structure, adjusting or replacing tree species in order to fully tap the production potential of inefficient forest land and improve forest stand quality, stability and efficiency.

[0005] Application No. CN116303799A is a blockchain-based forestry carbon emission accounting method, which divides the life cycle of trees into different carbon emission unit modules and provides a method for calculating carbon emissions at each stage. However, it has deficiencies in technical details, data accuracy, determination of carbon emission factors, and application of blockchain technology, and further research and improvement are needed to ensure its practicality and effectiveness; Application No. CN115187142A discloses a method and device for estimating the carbon footprint of garden green space, which takes garden green space vegetation, terrain and water bodies, hardened surfaces, building structures and supporting facilities as carbon emission accounting objects, and the accounting content includes the production, transportation, construction, operation and demolition stages of materials, but does not consider carbon emissions in the seedling breeding stage of vegetation, nor does it consider material categories and artificial carbon emissions; Application No. CN118014393A is a carbon footprint accounting method for the breeding stage of economic forest varieties The method and system proposed a carbon emission accounting method for the breeding stage of economic forest varieties, but it only considered the accounting of the breeding stage, and did not consider the carbon emissions of forest construction and infrastructure; the application number CN115186519A disclosed an agricultural carbon footprint measurement method and device based on a variable system boundary scenario, which provided the agricultural system with carbon emission accounting for the four stages of agricultural product production, processing, transportation and waste treatment, but did not mention the carbon emissions in the seedling breeding stage; the application number CN114781135A disclosed a comprehensive estimation method and system for net greenhouse gas emissions of regional agricultural planting systems, which provided a carbon emission accounting method for the four stages of crop sowing, management, harvesting and returning to the field, including CO2 emissions from fuel, consumables, chemicals, fertilizers and straw burning, but this patent did not take into account the seedling breeding stage, and lacked the accounting of the carbon footprint of the entire life cycle of forestry;

[0006] The existing technology is relatively lacking in the carbon emission accounting of forestry systems, lacking accurate accounting of carbon emissions in forestry systems, and it is urgent to fill the gap. Forest landscape is an important part of the forestry system, and it is of great significance for the carbon emission accounting of landscape afforestation.
