First signs of carbon sink saturation in European forest biomass
European forests are seen as a clear example of vegetation rebound in the Northern hemisphere, recovering in area and growing stock since the 1950s, after centuries of stock decline and deforestation. These regrowing forests have shown to be a persistent carbon sink, projected to continue for decades. However, there are early signs that the sink is saturating. Forest policies and forest management need to react if we want to sustain the sink.
