Fig. 2: Projected annual mitigation across biome, by mitigation activity (avoided deforestation, forest management, re/afforestation, and changes in rotation lengths) at a starting carbon price of $50/tCO2 and under 1 and 3% growth scenarios.

In the temperate and boreal biomes, where forest loss is predominately due to forestry activities, we include carbon gains due to avoided forest in our measure of gains due to shifts in rotation length.
