The second verification covers 2,320 hectares of privately owned oak, beech and hornbeam forest, up from 1,538 hectares in the first verification. Every hectare in the project has moved from commercial logging to long-term protection, and the carbon it stores is measured, independently verified and registered on Verra.

Carbon stock is measured on the ground, in field plots across the project. Sample trees are marked and numbered, like tree 03-9 here, so the same trees can be measured again at each verification.
