Congratulations to Tristan Bakx, BECC-doctoral student, who has published his first paper from his PhD. The researchers studied temporal and spatial scale effects on carbon stocks and financial value, showing that early carbon storage led to higher costs than late carbon storage, which should be considered in potential climate policies. Increasing carbon stock in standing forests is one of the pro
