27 4 Steps to Adapting Global Datasets 1. Decide on the pools and fluxes to include. 2. Conduct accuracy assessment of forest loss activity data. 3. Calibrate, modify, rebuild. a. Compile forest strata data to build benchmark biomass map. b. Use GLAS to calculate average biomass per forest strata. c. Collect degradation activity data. d. Gather gain-loss degradation emissions data. e. Review literature for other input parameters. 4. Calculate emissions and uncertainty. a. Assign uncertainty envelope to all input parameters. b. Translate calculations into comprehensive emissions equation. c. Use Monte Carlo simulation to propagate uncertainty. d. Identify opportunities to reduce uncertainty.
