Zero, one, or in between: Evaluation of alternative national and entity-level accounting for bioenergy by Bird, D.N., Pena, N., Zanchi, G.

“…Accounting for bioenergy's carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as done under the Kyoto Protocol (KP) and European Union (EU) Emissions Trading Scheme, fails to capture the full extent of these emissions. …”

A review of the state of research, policies and strategies in addressing leakage from reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) by Atmadja, S., Verchot, Louis V.

“…Most (11 of 15) studies published until 2005 estimated leakage of fossil-fuel-based emissions from large-scale interventions such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Kyoto Protocol. Many studies on leakage from landuse-based emissions more relevant for REDD+ emerged afterwards (11 of 15), mostly focusing on smaller-scale interventions (8 of the 11 studies). …”

Comparison of methods for measuring and assessing carbon stocks and carbon stock changes in terrestrial carbon pools. How do the accuracy and precision of current methods compare?:... by Petrokofsky, G., Kanamaru, Hideki, Achard, F., Goetz, S.J, Joosten, H., Holmgren, P, Lehtonen, A, Menton, M., Pullin, A.S., Wattenbach, M.

“…Methods: A systematic review will compare methods of assessing carbon stocks and carbon stock changes in key land use categories, including, forest land, cropland, grassland, and wetlands, in terrestrial carbon pools that can be accounted for under the Kyoto protocol (above- ground biomass, below-ground biomass, dead wood, litter and soil carbon). …”

Exploring new opportunities for improving AFOLU emissions reporting and the current status of AFOLU emissions for non-annex I countries by Nyawira, Sylvia S., Mulatu, Kalkidan Ayele, Verchot, Louis V.

“…Non-Annex I countries are to be understood as developing countries under the Kyoto Protocol. Contrary to Annex I countries, which are understood as developed countries and countries undergoing the process of transition to a market economy, non-Annex I countries do not have legally binding emissions reductions targets. …”

Identification of potential zinc deficiency responsive genes and regulatory pathways in rice by weighted gene co-expression network analysis by Muvunyi, Blaise Pascal, Xiang, Lu, Zhan, Junhui, He, Sang, Ye, Guoyou

“…Functional enrichment analysis showed that 24 of the 28 conserved modular DEGs from leaf and crown tissues significantly up-regulated 2 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways and 15 Gene Ontology (GO) terms, including the substrate- specific transmembrane transporter and the small molecule metabolic process. …”

Molecular programming of drought-challenged Trichoderma harzianum-bioprimed rice (Oryza sativa L.) by Bashyal, Bishnu Maya, Parmar, Pooja, Zaidi, Najam Waris, Aggarwal, Rashmi

“…The genes exclusively expressed in T. harzianum-treated drought-stressed plants were mostly photosynthetic and antioxidative such as plastocyanin, small chain of Rubisco, PSI subunit Q, PSII subunit PSBY, osmoproteins, proline-rich protein, aquaporins, stress-enhanced proteins, and chaperonins. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis states that the most enriched pathways were metabolic (38%) followed by pathways involved in the synthesis of secondary metabolites (25%), carbon metabolism (6%), phenyl propanoid (7%), and glutathione metabolism (3%). …”

Institutional challenges to the implementation of nationally determined contributions in Latin America and Caribbean countries: Institutional architecture requirements, issues aris... by Echebarria, Koldo

“…The pledge and review method were introduced first in 1991; however, in 1997, the international community chose to adopt legally binding emission reduction targets in the Kyoto Protocol. The pledge and review methods were reintroduced in the 2009 Copenhagen Accord, following its limited success and the inability to reach an agreement on new targets. …”

Carbon stocks in Danish forest types by Boveland, Judith

“…Carbon dioxide is one of the six greenhouse gases listed in the Kyoto Protocol, contributing to global warming. Research is conducted to gain knowledge on how to maximise forest carbon storage capacity, albeit, there are some constraints and limitations to both the role of forests in CO2 mitigation efforts and the estimation and comparison of forest carbon stocks. …”

Using tropical forest ecosystem goods and services for planning climate change adaptation with implications for food security and poverty reduction by Nkem, J., Santoso, H., Murdiyarso, Daniel, Brockhaus, Maria, Kanninen, M.

“…In spite of their contribution to poverty alleviation and food security, and also for climate change responses (adaptation and mitigation especially through the market-incentive schemes (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol) forests are still hardly integrated into national planning processes aimed at addressing any of these national development challenges. …”
