Abstract

This technical note describes data and methods that enable communities in the United States to include forests and trees outside forests in their greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories using the Land Emissions and Removals Navigator (LEARN) tool. LEARN is an interactive web tool that provides automated analysis of the GHG impacts of forests and trees at the community scale. This is a living document that will be updated as improvements to the tool and its data sources are completed.
