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 from vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas. Background Art

[0002] Desertification is the primary ecological problem facing karst areas, which has seriously affected the ecological environment and the production and life of local residents. Desertification is mainly caused by the combined effects of natural factors and human activities, which leads to the destruction of surface vegetation, increased soil erosion, exposed bedrock and reduced productivity, thus forming a desert-like ecological environment. For a long time, the problem of desertification has not only caused land degradation and ecosystem imbalance, but also had a negative impact on global climate change.

[0003] Desertification vegetation restoration refers to the process of re-establishing vegetation cover, improving soil quality, slowing down land degradation, and restoring ecosystem functions in desertified areas through artificial planting or natural restoration. Vegetation restoration can not only effectively curb land degradation, but also improve the ecological environment and promote sustainable development of the local economy. Scientifically promoting the comprehensive management of desertification will help better manage carbon emissions and mitigate the impact of global climate change.

[0004] At present, there is still a blank in the research on carbon emission accounting in the process of rocky desertification vegetation restoration. The traditional carbon emission accounting method ignores the full life cycle carbon emission in the process of rocky desertification vegetation restoration, and cannot accurately reflect the true carbon footprint of the restoration process. To fill this technical gap, the present invention provides a carbon emission accounting method for vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas based on the principle of full life cycle dynamic evaluation. The method includes four restoration modes: vegetation restoration in non-rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in potential rocky desertification and mild rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in moderate rocky desertification areas, and vegetation restoration in severe and extremely severe rocky desertification areas. The rocky desertification vegetation restoration is divided into three stages: planting, management, and engineering facility construction. The emission factor method is used to construct a carbon footprint accounting model. By tracking the input and output of production activities at each stage, a life cycle inventory is constructed to achieve scientific accounting of the carbon footprint of the operation process. This method can not only more accurately measure and report carbon emissions and improve the efficiency of vegetation restoration, but also promote the ecological, economic and social benefits of rocky desertification areas and promote sustainable development. The significance of the present invention lies in filling the gap in carbon emission accounting methods in the field of rocky desertification vegetation restoration, and helping to formulate more effective rocky desertification prevention and control and vegetation restoration strategies.

[0029] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention Figure 1-Figure 5 , the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the embodiments are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0030] The present invention discloses a carbon emission accounting method for vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas. The method is based on the principle of dynamic evaluation of the entire life cycle, including four restoration modes: vegetation restoration in non-rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in potential rocky desertification and mild rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in moderate rocky desertification areas, and vegetation restoration in severe and extremely severe rocky desertification areas. The rocky desertification vegetation restoration is divided into three stages: planting, management, and engineering construction. By tracking the input and output of production activities at each stage of the entire life cycle of vegetation restoration in karst areas, a life cycle inventory is constructed, and a carbon footprint accounting model is established using the emission factor method to achieve scientific accounting of the carbon footprint of the operation process. The method fills the technical gap in the carbon footprint accounting of rocky desertification vegetation restoration throughout its entire life cycle, helps to more accurately measure and report carbon emissions, improve the efficiency of vegetation restoration, and thus promote the ecological, economic and social benefits of the region and promote sustainable development.

[0031] like Figure 1 The carbon emission accounting method for vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas includes the following steps:

[0032] (a) Rocky desertification areas are divided into six categories according to the degree of degradation: non-rocky desertification, potential rocky desertification, mild rocky desertification, moderate rocky desertification, severe rocky desertification and extremely severe rocky desertification; different restoration modes are selected according to the different degradation levels, including vegetation restoration in non-rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in potential rocky desertification and mild rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in moderate rocky desertification areas and vegetation restoration in severe and extremely severe rocky desertification areas; Figure 2-Figure 5 shown.

[0033] (b) Divide the life cycle of vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas into sub-stages, determine the system boundaries, functional units and emission factors of emissions, and divide the entire vegetation restoration process into the planting stage, management stage and engineering construction stage;

[0034] (c) Collect production information of various stages of vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas, determine the carbon emission inventory of each stage, and conduct a carbon emission inventory analysis of the restoration process over the life cycle.

[0037] Specifically, due to the influence of natural and human activities, the karst landforms present desertification such as surface destruction, soil erosion, exposed bedrock, and declining productivity.

The restoration process is divided into four restoration modes: vegetation restoration in non-rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in potential rocky desertification and mild rocky desertification areas, vegetation restoration in moderate rocky desertification areas, and vegetation restoration in severe and extremely severe rocky desertification areas, including three stages: planting stage, management stage, and engineering construction stage:
