Label: CRF sector (IPCC 2006): forest land

Definition:
The CRF sector (IPCC 2006) 'forest land' is an agriculture, forestry and land use sector defined by the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories: Emissions and removals from lands with woody vegetation consistent with thresholds used to define forest land in the national GHG inventory, sub-divided into managed and unmanaged, and possibly also by climatic region, soil type and vegetation type as appropriate. It also includes systems with vegetation that currently fall below, but are expected to later exceed, the threshold values used by a country to define the forest land category.
