LCFS Indirect Land Use Change Expert Workgroup Carbon Emission Factors Subworkgroup June 2010 Update

Membership ARB staff representative: Kevin Cleary Uwe Fritsche (Oeko-Institut, Germany) Holly Gibbs (Stanford University) Keith Kline (ORNL) Steffen Mueller (University of Illinois at Chicago) Richard Nelson (Kansas State University) – Co-chair Don O’Connor (representing CDFA, S&T Consulting) Michael O’Hare (University of California, Berkeley) Sonia Yeh (University of California, Davis) – Co-chair

Task 1. Identify and compare the existing datasets and C emission factors Consult experts and conduct internal comparative review of datasets used for direct and indirect LULUC analyses – EPA Renewable Fuel Standard 2010 (EPA) – CARB-Woods Hole Research Center (WHRC) – FAO – Forestry Resources Assessment 2005 (FRA 2005) – 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC 2006) – New IPCC Tier-1 Global Biomass Carbon Map for the Year 2000 Global Above-and Below-ground Living Biomass Carbon Density (R&G) – C stock estimates for tropical landscapes (Gibbs 2008)

Task 1. Identify and compare the existing datasets and C emission factors Compare assumptions about C stock (biomass C and soil C), conversion, and fluxes – Spatial resolution of land types and associated cover and the corresponding data on C stock (biomass C and soil C), fluxes (sources and sinks) in the reference and disturbed scenario – Degradation factors to existing forestland – Rate and duration (and the spatial resolution) of biomass and soil C loss after conversion – Rate and duration (and spatial resolution) of C uptake (+/-) after land use conversion in the corresponding converted land use type(s).

Task 2. Identify important GHG emission sources and sinks that are ignored in previous analysis Additional fertilizers that will be required to improve yield Other inputs changes (e.g energy inputs +/-) associated with yield and/or management changes Credits for crops that sequester N2O GHG emissions from land that stayed in the same use category but changed management practices Accounting of harvested wood Other non-GHG aerosols and gases, such as ozone precursors, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO x ), sulfur oxides (SO x ), and black carbon (BC) Should albedo be considered? Mode of clearing (burning vs. smoldering vs. mechanical) affects the BC and CO emission factors

Potential Outside Experts Suggested by subEWG members: – Brent Sohngen/OSU (Global land use /biomass emission factors and databases) – Richard Houghton (WHRC) (Global soil and biomass C stock and emission factors) – Dr. Charles Rice, Kansas State University – Dr. Tristam O. West, ORNL – Sassan Saatchi (NASA JPL) - tropical to global biomass maps using satellite data – Experts from MIT (Emission factors used in EPPA model global land use/emission model) – Experts involved in the European studies (Emission factors most related to EU ILUC studies) – Susan Tarka Sanchez, Life Cycle Associates, LLC from CEC FFCA Deliverable (review of EPA/CARB methodology and lit review) – Johan Six and Mark Delucchi (UCD) (N2O emissions) – Nancy Harris, Sean Grimland and Sandra Brown/Winrock – Experts from Woods Hole (Global soil and biomass C stock and emission factors) – Gregg Marland, ORNL (Global soil and biomass C stock and emission factors) Suggested by stakeholders: – Rob Mitchell – Heather Young – Marta Chrusch
