Annual Carbon Emissions from Deforestation in the Amazon Basin between 2000 and 2010.
Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) is considered one of the most cost-effective strategies for mitigating climate change. However, historical deforestation and emission rates-critical inputs for setting reference emission levels for REDD+-are poorly understood. Here...
