Above-ground carbon balance of the French Guiana Permanent Forest Estate between 1974–2012. The carbon balance at time t is the integral of annual carbon fluxes, i.e. the sum of annual carbon fluxes from the first year (1974) to t. The net carbon balance (top) is the result of four components: emissions from logging damage (blue), emissions from road, deforestation on main skid trail and logging deck (purple), emissions from extracted timber (red), accumulation from post-logging recovery on the plot (forest green) and accumulation from regeneration on main skid trails and logging decks (light green). The shaded areas correspond to the 95 % credibility intervals
