- Abstract:
-
The Mexican cypress plantation forest was taken as a case. The carbon storage of shub layer, herbaceous layer and soil layer were investigated. the results showed that the branch, stem, leaf and root of shrub layer carbon contents is 48.92%, 48.49%, 49.74% and 48.04%,respectively, and the carbon contents of organs of shrub layer decreased in the order:was Cleaf > Cbranch > Cstem > Croot, for herbaceous layer the order was Cabove > Cbelow, and for litter fall layer the order was Cleaf > Cbranch. In the soil layer, the carbon content decreased with the increase of depth, with the most significant difference of carbon contents between the depth of 0—10 cm and the depth of 10-20 cm. Total existing carbon storage of Mexican cypress plantation forest ecosystem reached to 67.31 t/hm2, including the shrub layer 1.21 t/hm2, accounting for 1.8% of the total carbon; 0.08 t/hm2 in herbaceous layer, accounting for 0.12% of total carbon, 0.02 t/hm2 in litter layer, accounting for 0.03% of the total carbon and 66 t/hm2 in soil layers, accounting for 98.05% of total carbon, so carbon mainly concentrated in the soil layer.
