guess1021.65 this1021.89 is1022.22 my1023.54 time.1023.78 You1025.3 can1025.54 see1025.7 here1025.86 what1026.42 we1026.66 had1026.82 in1027.06 mind,1027.22 and1027.46 I1027.86 have1028.02 to1028.18 start1028.34 to1028.66 say1028.74 that1031.78 Patrick,1031.78 Doctor1032.26 Patrick1032.66 Fairbairn1033.06 is1034.02 really1034.34 behind1035.38 all1036.66 this.1036.9 All1037.3 of1037.54 the1037.7 data1037.86 that1038.72 was1038.96 gathered1039.13 came1039.61 from1039.92 him1040.24 and1040.48 his1040.72 team.1040.96 And1041.77 what1041.92 we1042.16 did1042.33 was1042.64 take1042.96 that1043.21

that1053.41 we1053.65 took1053.89 along1054.21 the1054.53 way,1054.69 you1055.25 can1055.33 see1055.57 here1055.81 laid1056.45 out1056.69 at1056.93 the1057.09 bottom.1057.25 We1058.05 took1059.09 Patrick's1059.97 data,1060.69 and1061.57 there1061.73 were,1061.97 I'll1062.45 get1062.69 into1062.93 that1063.17 more,1063.41 5191064.05 trees1065.49 that1066.05 were1066.71 actually1066.88 measured1069.2 in1069.52 two1069.76 periods.1069.99 11070.96 was1071.2 2015,1071.52 as1072.47 Patrick1072.71 said,1073.2 and1073.43 2021.1073.6 And1075.28 we1075.52 took1075.67 those1076.08 measurements1076.47 and1077.2 then1077.36 we1077.6 converted1077.84 them1078.39 to1079.28 biomass1079.67 equivalence1081.48 and1082.04 carbon1082.28 storage.1082.92 And1084.28 then1084.52 from1084.92 there,1085.16 we1085.72 attempted1086.28 to1086.76 compute1088.2 the1088.76 growth1088.92 of1090.12 the1090.28 carbon1090.44 between1091.32 20151091.72 to1092.6 2021.1092.76 And1094.44 then1094.6 this1095.24 was1095.56 in1096.8 the1097.2 study1097.36 plots,1097.84 which1098.23 I'll1098.47 get1098.63 into1098.88 more.1099.2 And1100.39 then1100.56 we1100.71 projected1100.96 totals1101.84 to1102.39 the1102.56 full1103.2 101103.43 acres,1103.67 and1104.56 then1104.71 we1104.96 had1105.12 a1105.52 couple1105.84 of1106.23 comments1106.39 at1106.88 the1107.04 end.1107.28 So1107.76 that's1107.91 basically1108.23 the1109.81 layout1109.97 of1110.45 the1110.61 study.1110.85 Ron,1111.25 can1111.57 you1111.81 go1112.13 to1112.37 the1112.45 next1112.61 one?1115.97 Ron?1115.97 Yeah.1116.93 There1117.41 we1117.57 whoops.1117.81 There1119.09 we1119.41 go.1119.57 Okay.1120.13 So1120.53 what1121.01 was1121.17 it1121.33 that1121.57 we1121.73 were1121.89 studying1123.29 or1123.61

Alright?1267.31 I1267.79 have1267.87 to1268.35 explain1268.51 that1269.23 the1269.55 biomass1269.71 is1270.59 dry1271.55 biomass.1272.03 And1275.83 by1275.99 that,1276.15 I1276.39 mean,1276.55 all1276.79 the1276.95 water1277.11 has1277.43 been1277.67 removed.1277.91 And1279.35 what1279.59 you1279.91 have1280.15 then1280.47 in1281.35 the1281.51 dry1281.75 biomass,1282.07 we1282.79 can1282.95 see1283.19 that1284.23 50%1284.87 of1285.83 that1286.07 dry1286.31 biomass1286.71 approximately,1287.73 it1288.45 varies1288.69 a1289.02 little1289.1 with1289.34 species,1289.49 but1290.06 that's1290.21 pretty1290.45 close.1290.69 As1291.41 a1291.65 general1291.73 rule,1292.21 50%1292.54 of1293.34 the1293.49 dry1293.65 biomass1293.97 in1294.62 terms1294.86 of1295.1 pounds1296.62

am1362.53 retentive,1363.77 if1364.57 I1364.89 may1365.13 use1365.37 that1365.69 term,1365.93 on1367.05 accuracy.1367.37 So,1369.37 the1369.45 guy1369.53 had1370.25 to1370.41 back1370.88 me1371.12 off1371.19 and1371.43 said,1371.67 round1372.08 some1372.39 of1372.63 your1372.79 numbers1372.95 and1373.91 make1374.23 them1374.39 a1374.63 little1374.71 more1374.95 comprehensible.1375.19 So1375.91 in1376.15 some1376.39 cases,1376.79 I1377.28 let1377.84 the1378.47 original1378.63 numbers1379.03 sneak1379.43 through.1379.76 Anyway,1381.36 that1382.47 biomass1382.88 formula1383.6 comes1384.48 from1384.72 a1385.28 very1385.68 important1386.16 model1387.04 from1387.44 the1387.68 US1387.84 Forest1388.08 Service1388.4 called1388.8 the1389.04 Jenkins1389.2 model.1389.68 It1390.48 was1390.64 used1390.96 extensively.1391.52 We1392.32 have1392.48 other1392.72 models1392.96 too,1393.36 but1394.08 they1394.32 require1394.56 that1395.04 we1395.28 measure1395.52 more1396.24 than1396.4 just1396.64 diameter.1397.04 So1397.92 at1398.16 the1398.33 point1398.4 we1398.64 did1398.88 this1399.05 study,1399.21 that's1399.53 what1399.85 we1400.01 had.1400.16 We1400.33 had1400.57 diameters,1400.81 and1401.29 that's1401.45 the1401.68 model1401.85 we1402.16 used.1402.4 Okay.1403.92 Ron,1405.29 can1405.53 you1405.77 go1405.92 to1406.09 the1406.24 next1406.33 slide?1406.57 Here1408.73 we1409.05 are.1409.21 Okay.1409.77 So1410.24 if1410.4 we1410.57 look1410.73 at1410.88 the1411.05 2.51411.21 acre1411.85 sample,1412.16 what1413.16 we1413.4 came1413.48 up1413.8 with1414.04 was1415.08 344,0001415.48 pounds.1417.4 And1418.6 now1418.76 that's1419 carbon.1419.32 And1420.52 that,1421.24 remember,1421.64 is1422.2 the1422.6 carbon1422.76 part1423.24 of1423.56 the1423.72 dry1423.88 biomass.1424.2 1425.4 If1425.4 we1425.64 project1425.88 that1426.44 to1426.76 the1426.92 full1427.57 carbon1427.96 dioxide1428.44 that1429.09 had1429.33 to1429.57 be1429.72 taken1429.88

it's1436.28 a1436.44 much1436.52 bigger1436.76 number,1437.09 1,262,4801437.48 pounds.1439.8 And1441.07 then1441.23 if1441.63 we1441.79 project1442.11 that1442.59 to1442.99 the1443.23 full1443.39 101444.91 acres,1445.31 then1446.03 we1446.27 get1446.51 the1447.23 stored1447.63 carbon1448.03 over1449.47 there1449.71 going1450.03 from1450.35 344,0001450.51 pounds,1452.35 we1452.51 go1452.51

point1490.37 we1490.68 like1492.37 to1492.61 make1492.77 is1493.56 a1493.8 very,1493.88 very1494.28 important1494.6 point,1496.44 and1496.76 I1496.92 think1497 it1497.24 will1497.4 be1497.56 well1498.92 appreciated1499.32 by1499.8 all1499.96 of1500.2 you.1500.28 It's1500.92 the1501.24 big1501.4 trees1501.72 that1502.36 generally1502.6 do1503 the1503.24 heavy1503.4 lifting.1503.72 And1504.84 so1505.08 I1505.48 wanted1505.72 to1506.04 show1506.2 what1506.92 the1507.8 contributions1509.13 were1510 of1510.72 the1510.96 larger1511.28 trees1511.76 relative1512.33 to1512.8 the1512.96 smaller1513.13 trees.1513.92 Because1514.96 when1514.96 you1515.2 get1515.37 into,1515.68 and1516.24 I've1516.48 gone1516.8 through1517.04 this1517.28 many1517.61 times,1517.92 where1519.92 a1520.48

under1527.76 the1528.08 assumption1528.16 that1528.64 young1528.88 trees1529.2 grow1529.52 fast,1529.84 well,1530.72 that's1531.44 a1533.2 very1533.28 misleading1533.52 picture.1534.16 The1535.2 carbon1535.36 is1535.84 stored1536 in1536.24 the1536.4 big1536.56 trees.1536.72 So1536.96 if1537.12 we1537.28 go1537.6 to1537.84 the1538.7 trees1539.18 in1539.66 Whitney1540.22 Hill1540.63 Forest1540.95 that1541.66 were1541.9 greater1542.46 than1542.87 or1543.11 equal1543.27 to1543.59 201543.74 inches1544.14 in1544.7 diameter,1544.95 there1547.03 were1547.74 361548.7 of1549.27 those1549.42 trees1551.21 that1551.45 we1551.77 measured.1552.89 And1553.93 they1553.93 represented,1554.73 well,1558.89 50.8%1559.37 of1561.37 the1561.53 total1561.69 carbon.1562.09 Now,1564.03 my1564.59 point1564.74 here1565.07 is1565.87 that1566.18 if1568.03 you1568.18 get1568.35 to1568.66 a1568.83 larger1569.07 size,1569.55 you're1570.11 gonna1570.35 get1570.59 fewer1570.83 of1571.14 the1571.22 trees.1571.38 So1571.7 if1571.94 we1572.11 go1572.18 up1572.42 to1572.51 241572.74 inches1573.31 and1573.87 more,1574.27 there1575.14 were1575.38 only1575.55 191575.87 trees1577.16 there.1577.88 1579 Now1579 the1579.96 three1580.2 numbers1580.44 that1580.76 you1581 see1581.16 here,1581.4 the1581.72 36,1581.96 the1582.52 10,1582.68 and1582.92 the1583.08 353,1585.8 these1586.44

trees1592.52 less1593.01 than1593.24 101593.4 inches1593.72 in1594.28 diameter,1595.33 they1596.44 only1596.68 account1597.24 for1597.72 10%1597.96 of1598.61 the1598.77 carbon.1598.92 This1599.8 is1600.04 really1600.28 the1600.77 story.1601.01 And1601.4 if1601.64 you1601.8 go1601.96 to1602.2 the1602.37 takeaway,1602.44 3%,1604.2 3.7%1605.09 of1606.52 the1606.77 trees,1606.92 that1608.34
