Perturbations in the carbon budget of the tropics [PDF]

, 2014
The carbon budget of the tropics has been perturbed as a result of human influences. Here, we attempt to construct a ‘bottom-up’ analysis of the biological components of the budget as they are affected by human activities.

Climatic regions as an indicator of forest coarse and fine woody debris carbon stocks in the United States

Carbon Balance and Management, 2008
Background Coarse and fine woody debris are substantial forest ecosystem carbon stocks; however, there is a lack of understanding how these detrital carbon stocks vary across forested landscapes.

Propagating Uncertainty in Plot-based Estimates of Forest Carbon Stock and Carbon Stock Change [PDF]

Ecosystems, 2014
Ecosystem science increasingly relies on highly derived metrics to synthesize across large datasets. However, full uncertainty associated with these metrics is seldom quantified. Our objective was to evaluate measurement error and model uncertainty in plot-based estimates of carbon stock and carbon change. We quantified the measurement error associated

Carbon on the Northwest European Shelf: Contemporary Budget and Future Influences

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
A carbon budget for the northwest European continental shelf seas (NWES) was synthesized using available estimates for coastal, pelagic and benthic carbon stocks and flows.

Biomass and carbon stock in Jatropha curcas L [PDF]

CERNE, 2011
This study aims to quantify the biomass and carbon stock in a crop of physic nut Jatropha curcas in Viçosa-MG at age three years. For biomass quantification, the direct or destructive method was applied to sample plants selected according to height, crown diameter and number of branches.

Mountain wetland soil carbon stocks of Huascarán National Park, Peru

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Although wetlands contain a disproportionately high amount of earth’s total soil carbon, many regions are still poorly mapped and with unquantified carbon stocks.

Global socioeconomic carbon stocks in long-lived products 1900–2008

Environmental Research Letters, 2012
A better understanding of the global carbon cycle as well as of climate change mitigation options such as carbon sequestration requires the quantification of natural and socioeconomic stocks and flows of carbon.

Assessment of Biomass and Carbon Stocks in Mangroves of Thalassery Estuarine Wetland of Kerala, South West Coast of India [PDF]

, 2020
The mangrove ecosystems render many goods and services ranging from coastal protection to climate regulation. These ecosystems are also reservoirs of carbon stocks, due to their ability to sequester and store carbon in their biomass and the underlying ...

Carbon and nutrient stocks of tea plantations differing in age, genotype and plant population density [PDF]

, 2008
Tea (Camellia sinensis L.) is a perennial evergreen shrub managed intensively for continuous growth of young shoots. Most tea plantations were established at the expense of native forest. Change in carbon (C) and nutrient (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium

Relevance of carbon stocks of marine sediments for national greenhouse gas inventories of maritime nations

Carbon Balance and Management, 2017
Background Determining national carbon stocks is essential in the framework of ongoing climate change mitigation actions. Presently, assessment of carbon stocks in the context of greenhouse gas (GHG)-reporting on a nation-by-nation basis focuses on the ...
