Extended Data Table 3 The Net Climate Impact (carbon–albedo) of tree planting Fig. 1b

From: Tree planting is no climate solution at northern high latitudes

  1. Modelled values summarising the climate offset by carbon storage only, and the net climate impact (NCI) when albedo is considered. The last two columns show the proportion of the total area in the land cover class where albedo offsets <50% (green) and >100% (red) of the carbon storage mitigation potential, respectively. Modified from Table S2 in ref. 29. Uncertainties in square brackets reflect the maximum and minimum values across the six radiative kernels (see ref. 29 for details). Note that the Griscom opportunity map is ignored, as it does not include numbers for the tundra biome.
