Our basic approach involves four steps: (1) estimating and mapping the supply of carbon storage using LiDAR technology and allometric models, (2) estimating and mapping the annual supply of carbon sequestration based on carbon gains from biomass growth and carbon loss from tree mortality and decay, (3) estimating and mapping demand for carbon sequestration based on the intensity of CO2 emissions by a set of human activities under the assumption that demand for carbon sequestration service increases with anthropogenic carbon emissions, and (4) analyzing the relationship between the supply of this service (carbon sequestration) and the demand for it (Fig 2).
