Carbon, Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services: Exploring Co-Benefits Ecuador

Land-use change, primarily through tropical forest loss and degradation, is estimated to contribute 6–17% of all anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (van der Werf et al. 2009). The maintenance and enhancement of natural carbon stocks are therefore now considered key climate change mitig...
