CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Regional modelling for REDD+ project development: the case of the Suruí Forest Carbon Project

Credible baseline setting and accurate and transparent Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) of results are key conditions for successful REDD+ projects. In this presentation, Gabriel Carrero from IDESAM explains the process of regional spatial and non-spatial modeling for determining a baseline in the Surui Forest Carbon Project. Gabriel Carrero gave this presentation on 8 March 2012 at a workshop organised by CIFOR, 'Measurement, Reporting and Verification in Latin American REDD+ Projects', held in Petropolis, Brazil. The workshop aimed to explore important advances, challenges, pitfalls, and innovations in REDD+ methods - thereby moving towards overcoming barriers to meeting MRV requirements at REDD+ project sites in two of the Amazon's most important REDD+ candidate countries, Peru and Brazil.
