2. Develop biomass density maps to estimate level of emissions from LU-change. • a. National inventory data and national database of biomass equations • 5 * 5 km in forested areas (1600 m2) • 20 * 20 km in non-forested areas • Quantitative data on trees and shrubs • Semi-quantitative data on other pools • Litter, CWD and Soil carbon measurements from 2009 onward • 20% re-measured every year
c. Assign biomass density to each forest polygon of the LU maps (Trees and shrubs)
86.900 Mg CO2 3. Annual CO2fluxesfromthe LULUCF sector, tobeused as Historical Business As Usual scenario (De Jong et al 2010)
