 "description": "<p><span>Representation\nof forest types, total carbon storage, and annual sequestration value across the\nGreater Toronto Area (GTA; including the City of Toronto and the entireties of\nYork, Peel, Durham, and Halton Regions). Data was sourced from the Ontario\nMinistry of Natural Resource\u2019s Wooded Area layer (2019), Wetlands layer (2024), and Ecological\nLand Classification (ELC) (2024) from Toronto and Region Conservation Authority,\nConservation Halton, Credit Valley Conservation, Lake Simcoe Region\nConservation Authority, Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority, and\nKawartha Conservation. Forest was defined using the Wooded Area layer to be\nareas with greater than 60% canopy cover and trees taller than 2 metres.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p><span>Total\ncarbon storage and annual sequestration value across the study area was\nquantified using average storage and sequestration rates assigned to each\nforest feature. Rates were based on insights from TRCA\u2019s ongoing research and\nliterature review on land-cover-based values in southern Ontario in the<\/span><span> <\/span><span>Natural\nAsset Carbon Assessment Guide and Toolbox (NACAGT). An economic value was also estimated\nfor forest carbon stocks and sequestration in the GTA.<\/span><\/p><p>This version has been generalized and optimized for web map purposes.<\/p>",
