FAO’s Forest Resource Assessment (FAO 2010) is the main data source used in the development and calibration of the forest management module, from which we derived data on wood production and deforested areas. In addition, national data were collected to parameterise the types and efficiency levels of forest management in different parts of the world (Arets et al., 2011). Further, the establishment of new forest plantations was designed according to planting rates reported and projected by the FAO (Brown, 2000; Carle and Holmgren, 2008).
