Carbon Balance and Management

“Science provides the foundation for understanding and tracking the carbon dynamics of the Earth, but its greatest imperative now lies in translating knowledge into actionable solutions. As global societies strive toward carbon neutrality, rigorous research becomes essential—especially on source reduction, sink enhancement, and systemic management. Carbon Balance and Management serves as both a vital scientific resource for evaluating climate actions and an integrated platform where cutting-edge science converges with policy innovation—equipping researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders with evidence to transform climate ambitions into measurable planetary outcomes.”

Carbon Balance and Management is dedicated to publishing original research related to the understanding of the global carbon cycle, as well as methodologies for its measurement and analysis and reviews of topics within the field. This includes studies of spatial and temporal distributions of carbon pools and fluxes, control and feedback mechanisms of the carbon-climate system and points of intervention for managing the carbon-climate-human system. The journal supports the work of the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) by providing governmental and non-governmental organizations with instantaneous access to contemporary knowledge, including paradigm shifts and consensual views.
