Afforestation at high latitudes disrupts soil, increasing microbial carbon decomposition and enhancing soil warming through snow trapping, while growing trees accelerate soil carbon turnover and reduce surface albedo. When a plantation is disturbed, albedo rises, but carbon stored in biomass decreases.

Arctic Tree Planting Could Actually Speed Up Global Warming, Scientists Warn

Amount of edible pasture grasses and vegetation grown in each gridcell per year for grazing livestock (pasture aboveground biomass). Darker colors refer to more annual pasture growth per unit area. Green shows pasture growth in potential forest areas, where pasture has replaced areas that were once forested. Pink shows pasture growth in native grassland areas.
