  3. 3. Recent changes in land use and productivity in agro-pastoral Inner Mongolia, China

    Author : Sara Brogaard; LUCSUS; []

    Abstract : This study challenges the prevailing assumption that the expansion of cultivated land areas and increasing number of livestock in the agro-pastoral regions of northern China have aggravated the process of land degradation since the start of the rural reforms in 1978. Land-use and productivity trends in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (IMAR), with special attention to the Keerqin steppe region, have been analysed. READ MORE

The thesis includes four individual studies that examine the topic from different angles, connected together by reoccurring elements of social resilience. READ MORE

  5. 5. To leak or not to leak? : Land‐Use Displacement and Carbon Leakage from Forest Conservation

    Author : Sabine Henders; Madelene Ostwald; Martin Persson; Julie Wilk; Linköpings universitet; []

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the question how emissions from land‐use displacement can be assessed and accounted for, using the example of carbon‐leakage accounting in the planned UNFCCC mechanism on ‘Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation’ (REDD). REDD serves here as example of an international forest conservation policy that might be effective locally but could lead to displacement of deforestation to other countries. READ MORE
