Study on Carbon Storage and Carbon Density of Arbor Forests in Huzhong Forestry Bureau
Based on the 2017 Type Ⅱ forest resource inventory data of Huzhong Forestry Bureau,the carbon storage and carbon density of arbor forests in Huzhong Forestry Bureau were estimated and ana-lyzed using the biomass expansion factor method,with consideration of tree species,origin,and age group.The results show that the total carbon storage of arbor forest resources in Huzhong Forestry Bureau is 29 371 948.3 tons,with an average carbon density of 39.98 tons per hectare.Natural forests ac-count for 99.4%of the carbon storage of arbor forests,indicating an absolute advantage.Larix gmelinii and Betula platyphylla account for 96.6%of the total carbon storage of arbor forests.The middle-aged group has the largest carbon storage,accounting for nearly half of the arbor forest carbon storage.The av-erage carbon density of Pinus sylvestris var.mongolica forests is much higher than that of other tree spe-cies.
