From: Carbon stocks of particle board and fiberboard in Japan
Japan’s building particle board (PB) and fiberboard (FB) carbon stocks between 1953 and 2022 under the different half-lives and decay functions. FOD_25: first order decay with a half-life of 25 years; LND_25: log-normal distribution with a half-life of 25 years; FOD_38–63: first order decay with a half-life of 38–63 years; LND_38–63: log-normal distribution with a half-life of 38–63 years. Values for “FOD_25” correspond to the building PB and FB carbon stocks based on Tier 2 shown in Fig. 3 while values for “LND_38–63” consist of the building PB and FB carbon stocks based on Tier 3 shown in Fig. 4.
