This study was conducted to estimate of the greenhouse gas inventory on forest land at provincial level. The greenhouse gas emissions are calculated according to the K-MRV guidance. We collected activity data from statistical yearbook of forestry and used default emission factors. The annual total CO2 emission in forest land was -58,711 Gg CO2eq. and the annual CO2 emission in loss such as fellings, fuelwood and fire was 19,896 Gg CO2eq. in 2011. The results showed the removals of carbon dioxide in the forest land, it’s amount was -38,815Gg CO2eq. in 2011. Annual net CO2 removal of local forest was highest in Kangwon province in 2011. Our study did not use the many statistics due to exclusion of double counting. There are need complementary activity data and emission factors, and then we will find a way to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions/removals in the near future.
