Abstract
Plantations and farm forestry represent significant land uses in parts of SWWA, with climate variability and change being major considerations in managing the existing resource and future expansion plans. Impacts of climate change on natural forests are considered in the section dealing with biodiversity. Development work on carbon sinks is a direct response to changes in international climate change policy, particularly the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Conve on Climate Change (U ntion NFCCC).
