dataset_eml_abstractheader

    This project evaluated carbon storage, sequestration, and removals on the Nash Stream Forest (NSF), New Hampshire’s largest state-owned property. Using a combination of Continuous Forest Inventory (CFI) data, FIA-enhanced Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) runs, and detailed harvest and scale slip records from 1997–2024, the analysis quantified live above- and below-ground carbon stocks, modeled growth rates, and measured harvest outflows. Transportation emissions from hauling harvested wood to mills were also calculated. Results provide a comprehensive carbon balance assessment for NSF, situating outcomes within the broader context of sustainable forest management and enabling direct comparison to earlier FEMC work on Pisgah State Park.

    • dataset_eml_datatabledescription: The raw scale-slip ledger documents all truckload-level harvest removals from 1997–2024, including species, product class, tonnage, mill destination, haul distance, and sale identifiers. This is the foundational dataset for calculating carbon removed via harvesting and for quantifying transport emissions. Data from this file are aggregated into annual totals and merged with conversion factors in the harvest-calculation workbook to produce the final carbon removal estimates used throughout the analysis.
