  • The synthesis refutes the implicit assumption of ecosystem service-oriented forest restoration initiatives that tree plantations can deliver ecosystem services as effectively as native forests.

    “Our synthesis refutes the implicit assumptions of ecosystem service-oriented forest restoration initiatives such as China's Grain-for-Green Program covering >34 million hectares (37,38), and a large collection of projects targeting carbon storage (39), soil conservation (40), and water provisioning (41) that have focused mostly on establishing (monoculture) tree plantations.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
