This article deliberates the processes, principles, and rules relevant to forest-sector climate change mitigation and adaptation in light of the nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of the Paris Agreement (PA). We tackle such issues as targets and indicators, scope and information needs of forest-sector actions, progress tracking, stock taking, anthropogenic testing, carbon (C) accounting, and jurisdictional governance. Along the way, we also offer our perspectives of and solutions to some of the problems likely to be encountered in implementing the PA. We note that a Party must possess consecutive inventories for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals to determine, communicate, and update its NDC. While there is little concern over the availability of GHG emission inventories, there remain gaps between the available information and what is needed for accounting forest-based actions. Improved measurement and monitoring is needed if the Party desires to include the C pools as part of the offsetting credits in its NDC accounting. Also, the jurisdictional governance means that actions taken by subnational and other entities should be nested within the NDC. As to the results-based payments scheme for REDD+, it will take time to be carried out at scale, because of the challenge of determining the baseline of an action and the failure to deliver the promised finance. Finally, Parties must do more to maintain and improve their forest conditions to shore up the significance and sustainability of forest-sector actions.

《巴黎协定》下的森林碳政策和经济学入门:第一部分

本文根据《巴黎协定》(PA) 的国家自主贡献 (NDC),探讨了与森林部门气候变化减缓和适应相关的过程、原则和规则。我们处理诸如目标和指标、森林部门行动的范围和信息需求、进度跟踪、盘点、人为测试、碳 (C) 核算和管辖区治理等问题。在此过程中,我们还提供了我们对实施 PA 中可能遇到的一些问题的看法和解决方案。我们注意到,缔约方必须拥有连续的温室气体 (GHG) 排放和清除清单,以确定、传达和更新其 NDC。虽然几乎没有人担心温室气体排放清单的可用性,现有信息与核算基于森林的行动所需的信息之间仍然存在差距。如果缔约方希望将 C 池作为抵消信用的一部分纳入其 NDC 核算,则需要改进衡量和监控。此外,管辖权治理意味着地方和其他实体采取的行动应该嵌套在 NDC 内。至于REDD+的基于结果的支付计划,由于确定行动基线的挑战以及未能兑现承诺的资金,大规模实施需要时间。最后,缔约方必须采取更多措施来维持和改善其森林状况,以加强森林部门行动的重要性和可持续性。如果缔约方希望将 C 池作为抵消信用的一部分纳入其 NDC 核算,则需要改进衡量和监控。此外,管辖权治理意味着地方和其他实体采取的行动应该嵌套在 NDC 内。至于REDD+的基于结果的支付计划,由于确定行动基线的挑战以及未能兑现承诺的资金,大规模实施需要时间。最后,缔约方必须采取更多措施来维持和改善其森林状况,以加强森林部门行动的重要性和可持续性。如果缔约方希望将 C 池作为抵消信用的一部分纳入其 NDC 核算,则需要改进衡量和监控。此外,管辖权治理意味着地方和其他实体采取的行动应该嵌套在 NDC 内。至于REDD+的基于结果的支付计划,由于确定行动基线的挑战以及未能兑现承诺的资金,大规模实施需要时间。最后,缔约方必须采取更多措施来维持和改善其森林状况,以加强森林部门行动的重要性和可持续性。至于REDD+的基于结果的支付计划,由于确定行动基线的挑战以及未能兑现承诺的资金,大规模实施需要时间。最后,缔约方必须采取更多措施来维持和改善其森林状况,以加强森林部门行动的重要性和可持续性。至于REDD+的基于结果的支付计划,由于确定行动基线的挑战以及未能兑现承诺的资金,大规模实施需要时间。最后,缔约方必须采取更多措施来维持和改善其森林状况,以加强森林部门行动的重要性和可持续性。
