Continental U.S. risk-scaled carbon value map. Map of the continental U.S. showing average relative carbon value, $1-F\left(1-\frac{M}{P}\right)$, by forest type. Multiplying the average relative carbon value on the map by the market value of carbon determines the risk scaled value of the forest carbon for a given forest type. For example, a value of 0.4 equates to a risk scaled value equal to 40% of the market value.
