Leakage of Blue Carbon Project Sample Clauses

Leakage of Blue Carbon Project. For climate change mitigation, impacts outside the boundary (e.g., activity-shifting leakage, market leakage, ecological leakage, and emissions upstream and downstream (life cycle) of business activities) are generally assumed to be zero unless significant impacts are observed. The vast potential of nascent BC NbS is offshore, occasionally overlapping and context-dependent jurisdictions and public domains that lack straightforward carbon rights concepts for private property. The ecological leakage may be achieved by a project design, which causes no alteration of mean annual water table depths or flooding frequency or duration in adjacent areas or limiting such alteration to levels that do not influence GHG emissions. In tidal wetland restoration projects, dewatering downstream wetlands is unexpected if project areas are set sufficiently large to include expected areas of changed hydrology. Procedures for monitoring alterations of water table depth at the project area. The tidal range and sediment delivery experienced by wetlands outside the project area must remain within the system tolerance, which is defined by the high and low tides and regional sediment budget and assessed using hydrological models (and/or empirical analysis) and expert judgment.
