Presentation Transcript

  1. LULUCF Data gap presentation Objective of the presentation is to reduce uncertainty of the Bhutanese GHG Inventory since it is one of the very few nations revealing carbon sequestration in its LULUCF Sector By Yeshey Penjor NEC, Bhutan

  2. GHG Inventory problems of Bhutan Data Collection-Understanding of required data (PMT) Non-availability of Conversion factors and Emission factors Lack of public awareness on Climate Change issues

  3. GHG Inventory contd…. • Emissions and removal abstract CO2 (emissions) = 228.46, Vs CO2 (removals) = 3,549.52 Net sequestration= 3,321.05 Gg CH4 = 19.22, N2O = 2.13, NOx = 0.71 and CO = 2.29. *Per capita CO2 (removal) 3321/564,000x109 =5.888 t

  4. GHG Inventory contd… • Greenhouse Gas Sources and Sink Categories CO2 CH4 N2O Total (Net) National Emissions (Gigagram/year) -3,321.05 19.22 2.13 Energy 94.77 0.05 0.00 Industrial Processes 133.69 0.00 0.00 Agriculture 0.00 19.17 2.13 Land use, land use change and forestry -3,549.52 0.00 0.00 Changes in forestand other woody biomass stocks -3,505.85 Forest and grassland conversion 0.00 Abandonment of managed lands -43.67 CO2 emissions and removals from soil 0.00 Waste sector and Solvent and other uses not estimated for lack of data.

  5. LULUCF data problems • Non-availability of Conversion factors and Emission factors • Forestry terminology differences between IPCC Guidelines and available national data

  6. IPCC Guideline Tropical: Acacia Spp. Eucalyptus sp. Tectona grandis Pinus spp. Pinus Caribaea Mixed hardwoods Mixed fast growing H/ws mixed soft woods Temperate: Douglas fir Loblolly pine Bhutan Forest Inventory Sub-Tropical: Broad leaf forest Mixed broad leaf Chirpine Temperate: Conifer; Fir Cyprus Blue pine Varying forestry terminology-For Annual Accumulation of dry matter biomass in plantations

  7. Initial GHG Inventory Uncertainty

  8. Is calculation of carbon sequestration due to forest regeneration in abandoned shifting cultivation correct?? Kadrinchey (Thank you for your attention)!
