Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Change- Collective Crunch

Nature-Based Solutions

Forests play an integral role in mitigating climate change, and nature-based solutions are crucial for enhancing their effectiveness. Protecting forest biodiversity is one of the key elements of sustainable forest management. Biological diversity and overall ecological health ensure strong and resilient forests. Healthy forests store carbon in their biomass and soil efficiently, preventing emissions into our atmosphere.

Establishing a baseline for forest carbon inventory is an important first step in carbon projects. A data-driven forest carbon inventory helps to define stored carbon and rates of sequestration throughout the forested lands and assists forest management efforts with precision and high quality. Utilizing nature-based solutions in this process optimizes carbon management and supports sustainable forest management practices.

Challenges for Nature-Based Solutions

Field measurements require tools, skills, and knowledge as well as time commitment to complete.
Forest carbon inventories and field measurements may require outside assistance.
Carbon stock inventories are indicative estimates.
Verifying biodiversity requires field measurements.
Detecting changes and damages in vast forest areas and updating forest asset information is time-consuming.

Our Solution

Our nature-based solutions help managing forests sustainably. We help you to strengthen the resilience of your forests and offer you ongoing, reliable insights and visibility into the carbon stored in your forests.

Benefits

Allows reporting of accurate carbon stock values while avoiding labour intensive and costly field measurements.
Continuous monitoring instead of 5–10 years inventory cycles.
Biodiversity hot spots analyses provides information for forest planning.
Frequently updated analytics increases accuracy of your forest assets information and improves the capacity to react quickly when necessary.
Integrate forests into your overall carbon footprint and elevate the importance of managing forests sustainably in meeting carbon reduction goals.

Too many carbon projects have problematic foundations. The credibility of a carbon offset is determined by its ability to be tracked and measured, often against a baseline. Our solution utilises various datasets combined with AI to provide you with accurate and up-to-date inventories for forest carbon stocks. Our analysis offers a comprehensive view of your entire forest resources across vast geographic areas. Based on key forest attributes like species distribution, tree height and volume it provides relevant changes in a timely manner.

Circular economics and forest carbon offset projects come with many questions: Where are the trees, what kind of growth to expect, and are the trees still standing? Our monitoring tool helps you to analyse the changes in biomass and carbon stocks near real-time. Our solution provides you with details on both positive (growth) and negative (damages, harvests) changes in the carbon stocks in specified areas. With visibility to your forest resources, health and carbon stock storages, you can plan the needed measures accurately and punctually, and manage your forests sustainably.

The health of an ecosystem is significantly influenced by its biodiversity. Understanding the health of your natural assets is vital to its longevity. Our solution relies on selected key indicators, such as tree species, structures, and the amount of deadwood, to identify most valuable areas regarding biodiversity and to pinpoint degradation of biodiversity. It supports you in operational decision-making for enhancing biodiversity in forest management. With continuous monitoring and precise analysis, you will be able to accurately predict, plan and execute needed activities to efficiently secure the sensitive ecosystem of your forests.
