摘要
In the past 20 years,Xishuangbanna has been largely transformed from biodiverse natural forests and mixeduse farms into monoculture rubber plantations.The expansion of monoculture rubber plantation has brought about several problems,including the loss of lowland seasonal rain forest,the reduction of biodiversity,and drinking water shortage.Recently,China has launched a domestic forest-carbon market to curb carbon emissions and mitigate climate change.Based on their previous studies on spatially explicit net present value(NPV)of rubber plantations and carbon sequestration in Xishuangbanna,Dr.YI Zhuangfang
In the past 20 years, Xishuangbanna has been largely transformed from biodiverse natural forests and mixed- use farms into monoculture rubber plantations. The expansion of monoculture rubber plantation has brought about several problems, including the loss of lowland seasonal rain forest, the reduction of biodiversity, and drinking water shortage.
