Simulation of the carbon present in timber forest products – determination of the parameters “I(t)”, “K” and “e-k” in equation 6

DIVISION I

VALUE OF PARAMETER “I(t)”

(1) Unless modified by the promoter, the value of the parameter I(t) in equation 6 is determined using the table below. The variable corresponds to the value from the provincial matrix of distribution rates by forest product, based on age, for the fir, spruce, jack pine and larch species group.

Value of parameter “I(t)” in equation 6
	Age of stand
Timber forest product	0	10	20	30	40	50	60	70	80	90	100 to 160
Sawn timber	n/a	n/a	n/a	0.19	0.43	0.49	0.52	0.44	0.60	0.64	0.58
Particle board *	n/a	n/a	n/a	0.02	0.06	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07
Veneer and plywood *	n/a	n/a	n/a	0.02	0.06	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07	0.07
Pulp and paper, cardboard	n/a	n/a	n/a	0.68	0.44	0.38	0.35	0.42	0.28	0.25	0.30
Energy products (granules, logs, biofuels, etc.)	n/a	n/a	n/a	0.11	0.07	0.06	0.06	0.07	0.05	0.04	0.05
* The products “particle board” and “plywood” are mutually exclusive. The promoter must determine which of the two matches the reality of the project.

DIVISION II

VALUE OF PARAMETERS “K” AND “e-k” AND HALF-LIFE

(1) The value of parameters K and e-k and half-life in equation 6 of section 46 is determined using the table below. The parameters are used to define the annual change in carbon stock in various categories of timber forest products.

Value of parameters K and e-k in equation 6
Timber forest product	k	e-k	Half-life
Sawn timber	0.02	0.98	35
Particle board	0.03	0.97	20
Veneer and plywood	0.03	0.97	20
Pulp and paper, cardboard	0.28	0.76	2.5
Energy products (granules, logs, biofuels, etc.)	0.69	0.50	1
