| Definition | Forest Land includes all land with woody vegetation consistent with thresholds used to define Forest land in the national greenhouse gas inventory. It also includes systems with a vegetation structure that currently fall below, but in situ could potentially reach the threshold values used by a country to define the Forest Land category. (Source: 2006 IPCC Guidelines) According to FAO 2015 Forest land must span more than 0.5 hectares with trees higher than 5 meters and a canopy cover of more than 10 percent, or trees able to reach these thresholds in situ. This segment addresses different characters that further describe the form specific techniques of forestry management. By combining the following characteristics listed under this segment different types of forest constellations can be described. To separate between native forests (forests that do not contain any non-native trees) and non-native forest (forests containing both native and non-native tree species) use the code list 3.9 Plant Species Origin. |
