While the role of forestry in mitigating climate change is increasingly subject to political commitment, other areas, such as water protection, may be at risk. In this study, we ask whether surface waters are sufficiently safeguarded in relation to the 2015 launch of a series of measures to intensify forest management for mitigation of climate change in Norway. First, we assess how impacts on water are accounted for in existing regulations for sustainable forestry. Secondly, we provide an overview of the impacts of forestry on water quality relevant to three support schemes: afforestation on new areas, increased stocking density in existing forests, and forest fertilisation. Lastly, we assess the uncertainties that exist with regard to surface waters in the implementation of these measures. We find that the safeguards in place are adequate to protect water resources at the point of initiation, but there is a large degree of uncertainty as to the long-term effect of these mitigation measures.

挪威的缓解气候变化和加强森林管理:地表水的保护程度如何?

尽管林业在缓解气候变化中的作用越来越受到政治承诺的约束,但其他领域,例如水保护,可能处于危险之中。在这项研究中,我们要问的是,相对于2015年推出的一系列加强挪威森林管理以缓解气候变化的措施而言,地表水是否得到充分保护。首先,我们评估如何在现有的可持续林业法规中考虑对水的影响。其次,我们概述了林业对与三个支持计划有关的水质的影响:造林新地区,增加现有森林的种群密度以及森林施肥。最后,我们评估了在实施这些措施时地表水存在的不确定性。
