Carbon and upland nature conservation
School of Geography, University of Leeds held on 4th November
2009
Purpose of the meeting: This
meeting was convened to draw together some of the key researchers
working on carbon and upland nature conservation issues.
The main focus for the meeting was to
understand the relationships between the various different
vegetation types (including regional, altitudinal and topographical
effects) and carbon sequestration and emissions.
