Small-scale farms in the western Brazilian Amazon: can they benefit from carbon trade?
Published 2000“…Carbon flow payments, on the other hand, do not provide an adequate economic incentive to slow deforestation because forests are more or less in equilibrium and thus do not sequester additional carbon. If the Kyoto Protocol were amended to allow for conservation of forest carbon, a few potential CDMs could provide inexpensive carbon offsets, alleviate poverty, and preserve biodiversity. …”

The architecture of proposed REDD schemes after Bali: facing critical choices
Published 2008“…The scheme could have a deleterious impact on the carbon market through massive hot air creation (fake emission reductions), and ultimately on the current international climate change regime derived from the cap-and-trade architecture adopted by the Kyoto Protocol. The political economy of avoided deforestation is frequently overlooked as is the issue of additionality, although both of them are more critical with deforestation at national level than they could be with project-based CDM. …”

Payments for ecosystem services: a new way of conserving biodiversity in forests
Published 2009“…The novel idea here would be to make agreements at the nation-state level, either bilaterally or multilaterally, and either within or outside the Kyoto framework. However, to take advantage of this opportunity, biodiversity conservation and forest stakeholders would need to be more proactive in the REDD debate than we have seen so far.…”

Mapping of clear-cuts in Swedish forest using satellite images acquired by the radar sensor ALOS PALSAR
Published 2009“…This study presents results for observing forest changes in Sweden using multi-temporal L-band satellite data and is a part of the JAXA’s ALOS Kyoto and Carbon Initiative. An extensive dataset of images acquired by the Advanced Land Observing Satellite Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (ALOS PALSAR) is investigated for clear-cut detection in boreal forests in northern Sweden (Lat. 64°14’ N, Long. 19°50’ E). …”
