“The results of one of the biggest surveys of China’s land ecosystems ever undertaken have just been published, a five-year mission that involved 350 scientists and cost US$35 million. The project was part of China’s efforts to increase understanding about climate change and the effect of carbon emissions and storage in terrestrial ecosystems, and how land restoration can aid in this goal.

The results were published in April as a series of seven scientific articles titled “Climate Change, Policy, and Carbon Sequestration in China Special Feature” in international science journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).”
