This concept note assesses the REDD+ emission reduction and removal potential in and around Penaoru and Petawata on Santoâs West Coast.
The assessment indicates that there is almost no potential for activities reducing deforestation in the proposed area. Reducing forest degradation by eliminating invasive weeds might show some potential for emission reductions and removals, but requires further research to assess the management options and their carbon dynamics. The community areas of Penaoru and Petawata show a potential of 664 ha for enhancing forest carbon stocks activities.
