Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Encompassing 39,000 acres in the East Bay, the Alameda Watershed is one of the largest public land holdings in the San Francisco Bay Area. The site of several water supply reservoirs, the watershed is managed by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) for both water resources pr…otection as well as biodiversity conservation, fire risk reduction, and other goals. The landscape is characteristic of the region, with rugged topography and vegetation dominated by grasslands, shrublands, and oak woodland habitats, along with riparian forests and wetlands. Carbon sequestration in the watershed's ecosystems has received increasing attention as a potential nature-based strategy toward San Francisco's net zero GHG emissions goal. To support SFPUC managers in making informed carbon management decisions, this carbon assessment for the Alameda Watershed offers scientific guidance on the watershed's current and potential performance as a natural climate solution. Two main objectives framed this analysis: to quantify existing carbon stocks in the watershed, and to evaluate opportunities to enhance carbon sequestration in the watershed's vegetation and soil.
