Purpose of Review

The primary focus of this paper is to review articles that incorporate forest carbon sequestration or bioenergy into an optimization framework for forest management at the stand and forest levels and to highlight the gaps in the literature. Forest management is seen as a cost-effective strategy to reduce carbon emission, and optimization techniques are a powerful tool to assist in developing an optimal strategy.

Recent Findings

Our review of literature shows a gap in research on the use of optimal management schemes to investigate the impact of silvicultural techniques such as site preparation, genetic improvement, and fertilization on carbon sequestration. For operational planning, spatial information is helpful in developing an optimal mitigation strategy. However, there is a gap in literature when it comes to the application of exact solution techniques to solve spatially constrained harvest scheduling problems that encourage carbon sequestration and timber production, while taking into account forest management prescriptions. The review further shows that assessing the impacts of using carbon sequestration and bioenergy strategies to mitigate the impact of greenhouse gas-induced climate change is complex due to the interaction between the forest sector, energy, and other industrial product sectors.

Summary

We suggest that more research should be directed towards using optimization techniques and an integrated system approach that tracks carbon flow in multiple sectors as a strategy to reduce carbon emissions. This strategy should encourage higher wood utilization and increase use of long-lived harvested wood products as well as bioenergy from waste wood.

将碳和生物能源问题纳入森林管理

审查目的

本文的主要重点是回顾将林木固碳或生物能源纳入林分和林级森林管理优化框架的文章，并强调文献中的空白。森林管理被认为是减少碳排放的具有成本效益的策略，而优化技术是协助制定最佳策略的有力工具。

最近的发现

我们对文献的审查显示，在使用最佳管理方案来调查造林技术（例如场地准备，遗传改良和施肥）对固碳的影响方面，存在研究空白。对于操作计划，空间信息有助于制定最佳的缓解策略。但是，在运用精确解决方案技术解决空间受限的采伐计划问题时，文献中存在空白，这些问题在考虑森林管理规定的同时，鼓励了固碳和木材生产。审查进一步表明，由于森林部门，能源，

概要

我们建议应将更多的研究针对使用优化技术和集成系统方法来跟踪多个部门的碳流量，以此作为减少碳排放的策略。该策略应鼓励提高木材利用率，增加使用长寿命伐木产品以及废木产生的生物能。
