New models of the dynamic patterns of carbon uptake by forest ecosystems allow improvements in the estimation of the costs of carbon sequestration in the U.S. The preliminary results of an effort to update an earlier study indicate that conversion of environmentally sensitive and economically marginal cropland and pastureland in the U.S. could offset as much as 25% of current U.S. emissions at costs of $US 8-60 per short ton.
