The Simple Assessment provides a simple tool to assess the impact of land use and management activities on carbon stocks and greenhouse gas emissions.
It could be useful for:
Ex-ante analysis for project proposals
Projects with limited data, time, or resources
A quick report to a funding agency or other interested party
The tool will be most useful to land management projects involving relatively few land use/management changes on a small area or on relatively few combinations of soil type and climate.
Users choose land use and management options from dropdown menus making it quick and easy to use.
Results are spatially explicit and further broken down by land use, land management, soil type, and climate.
