Towards an Integrated Consistent European LULUCF Monitoring and Policy Pathway Assessment Framework - PathFinder

需要关于森林当前状况的准确信息来预测森林管理的影响，以便作出明智的政策决定。为了宣传和支持这些政策目标的实施，探路者将开发和展示一个创新的综合森林监测和路径评估系统。这一系统将首次使欧盟能够对土地利用、土地利用的变化和林业部门进行一致的温室气体报告，但同时将这种监测能力与先进的路径评估相结合，以帮助规划实现政策目标的基本政策和执行步骤。对森林的持续监测有助于控制目标实现情况，可能还有助于调整途径。探路者超越了最先进的水平，最有效地结合使用野外和遥感数据，以进行高分辨率地图绘制和精确估计森林属性。在欧盟开展业务的最大森林监测组织，即国家森林清单和在比较方案森林下建立的网络的合作，提供了丰富的统一地面真实信息数据库，并将辅之以对不断评估的实地监测点进行创新的实地调查。先进的测量设备将提供视听数字孪生兄弟，包括持续监测的森林的遗传属性，以最大限度地提高新数据的透明度和互操作性。对组合数据库的分析将提高我们对C池之间通量的理解。监测系统的准确森林信息将纳入一个新的情景框架，该框架预测未来的森林情景和森林管理备选方案的结果。这些情景有助于森林ES的权衡分析，是路径评估中的潜在通道。路径评估是一项共同创造的活动，在这项活动中，新的监测和情景研究与欧盟一级的利益攸关方愿景和知识相结合。

Precise information on the current status of forests is required to forecast forest management effects which allows informed policy decisions. To inform and support the implementation of these policy objectives, PathFinder will develop and demonstrate an innovative integrated forest monitoring and pathway assessment system. This system, for the first time, will allow a consistent EU greenhouse gas reporting of the LULUCF sector, but, at the same time combine such monitoring capability with advanced pathway assessment to help plan the essential policy and implementation steps towards achieving the policy targets. The continuous monitoring of forests facilitates controlling of target achievement and possibly adjustment of pathways. PathFinder goes beyond the state-of-art by the most efficient, combined use of field and remotely sensed data for high-resolution mapping and precisely estimating forest attributes. The cooperation of the largest forest monitoring organizations operating in the EU, i.e., national forest inventories(NFIs) and the network installed under ICP Forests, provides a rich data base of harmonized ground truth information which will be complemented by an innovative field survey of consistently assessed field monitoring sites. Advanced measurement devices will provide an audio-visual digital twin including genetic properties of the consistently monitored forest for maximum transparency and interoperability of new data. The analysis of combined databases will improve our understanding of fluxes among C pools. The precise forest information of the monitoring system will feed into a new scenario framework that forecasts future forest scenarios and outcomes of forest management alternatives. The scenarios facilitate trade-off analysis of forest ES and are potential alleys in the pathway assessment. The pathway assessment is a co-creation activity in which novel monitoring and scenario studies are integrated with EU-level stakeholder visions and knowledge.
