Carbon stock in the Sundarbans mangrove forest: spatial variations in vegetation types and salinity zones
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the estimation of ecosystem carbon stock in the Sundarbans using a large scale data set collected from systematic grid samples throughout the forest, and the results revealed that no matter whether the mangroves are tall or dwarf, a significant amount of carbon is stored into the sediment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon and nitrogen pools in a mangrove stand of Kandelia obovata (S., L.) Yong: vertical distribution in the soil–vegetation system
TL;DR: In this paper, the carbon and nitrogen pools in a monospecific and pioneer mangrove stand of Kandelia obovata were quantified in Okinawa Island, Japan, and the root wood (37.1-45.0%) contained significantly higher amount of C than root bark (35.4-40.7%) (P < 0.05) and N (P< 0.01) than wood (46.2-47.8% for C and 0.914% N).
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass and aboveground net primary production in a subtropical mangrove stand of Kandelia obovata (S., L.) Yong at Manko Wetland, Okinawa, Japan
TL;DR: The low leaf longevity and high growth efficiency of K. obovata makes it a highly productive mangrove species, and seasonal changes of litterfall rate were observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Allometric relationships for estimating the aboveground phytomass and leaf area of mangrove Kandelia candel (L.) Druce trees in the Manko Wetland, Okinawa Island, Japan
TL;DR: Taking into account the allometric relationships of the weight of aboveground organs or leaf area per tree to different dimensions, such as D2, D2H, DB2 and D0.12H, a standard procedure for estimating the biomass and leaf area index in the K. candel stand, including the shorter trees, is proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-species stand level carbon stock model was proposed for estimating the forest carbon stocks from easily measurable stand variables, e.g. basal area, mean or maximum tree height and species wood density.
