"Our best-performed and cross-validated random forest model ... " Someone had fun with that abstract. As an aside, though darker trees absorb more sunlight than snow/ground, and the albedo effect starts to dominate in this region (in terms of global warming) vs the CO2 benefit of more trees: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-46577-1/figures/1 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-46577-1/figures/1 ... so the mitigation potential is perhaps backward from what they state in the paper.
