Impacts of climate warming on biomass proportion of global forest carbon stocks

, 2023
A large amount of carbon is stored in global forests. However, the fraction of carbon stored as plant biomass vs. soil organic carbon (SOC) varies among forest types. The extent to which biomass and SOC pools may change over the 21st century is uncertain, yet important to carbon cycle interactions with climate change.

Estimation of Total Carbon Stocks in Soil and Vegetation of Tropical Peat Forest in Indonesia

Jurnal Manajemen Hutan Tropika, 2012
The study was conducted in the forest concession area of PT. Diamond Raya Timber, Riau Province, Indonesia.  Measurement and calculation carbon stocks in soil and vegetation of tropical peat forest should be done accurately to anticipate carbon trading.

Biomass and Carbon Stocks of Sofala Bay Mangrove Forests [PDF]

Forests, 2014
Mangroves could be key ecosystems in strategies addressing the mitigation of climate changes through carbon storage. However, little is known regarding the carbon stocks of these ecosystems, particularly below-ground. This study was carried out in the mangrove forests of Sofala Bay, Central Mozambique, with the aim of quantifying carbon stocks of live ...

Biomass and carbon stock estimation of an Atlantic Forest fragment

Revista Agrogeoambiental, 2021
Carbon sequestration is a crucial ecosystem service, naturally mitigating and reducing the ever-growing threat from climate change. Large forests, such as the Atlantic Forest, are important carbon reservoirs removing carbon from the atmosphere and storing it in their biomass.

Soil carbon stock in balsa wood after fertilization strategies

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2021
: The objective of this work was to evaluate whether balsa wood plantation and its fertilization can improve soil carbon stocks. Total carbon stocks in the soil-biomass system, at 0.0-0.30 m soil depths, were evaluated under three fertilization ...

Optimal set of leaf and aboveground tree elements for predicting forest functioning [PDF]

Biogeosciences
The role played by environmental factors in the functioning of forest ecosystems is relatively well known. However, the potential of the elemental composition of trees (i.e., elementomes) as a predictor of forest functioning remains elusive.

Tropical forest restoration: Fast resilience of plant biomass contrasts with slow recovery of stable soil C stocks [PDF]

, 2017
Due to intensifying human disturbance, over half of the world's tropical forests are reforested or afforested secondary forests or plantations. Understanding the resilience of carbon (C) stocks in these forests, and estimating the extent to which they ...

Characterizing degradation of palm swamp peatlands from space and on the ground: an exploratory study in the Peruvian Amazon [PDF]

, 2017
Peru has the fourth largest area of peatlands in the Tropics. Its most representative land cover on peat is a Mauritia flexuosa dominated palm swamp (thereafter called dense PS), which has been under human pressure over decades due to the high demand for

Aboveground biomass and carbon stocks in subtropical forests

Ecological Indicators
Quantifying plant biomass in native forests is essential to understanding ecosystem health, primary productivity, biodiversity, and the carbon cycle, contributing to climate regulation. Therefore, the objective of this study was to establish biomass estimators and quantify biomass and carbon stocks in subtropical forests in Brazil.

A comprehensive data-based assessment of forest ecosystem carbon stocks in the US 1907–2012

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
The consistent and robust assessment of ecosystem carbon stocks remains central to developing and monitoring climate change mitigation strategies. Here, we investigate the dynamics of forest ecosystem carbon stocks in the conterminous United States ...
