Land Use Change Based CO2 Estimates:

There have been claims that Land Use Changes are a significant source of anthropogenic CO2. However, the following graphs are based upon Houghton et al. data with known limitations, as acknowledged in IPCC AR4. Houghton’s method of reconstructing Land-Use Based Net Flux relies on statistical and historic documents for 9 world regions, and findings have varied significantly between publications (e.g. global total net flux estimates differed substantially between Houghton & Hackler 2001 and Houghton 2008). These estimates should be viewed with appropriate skepticism.
