Carbon Storage Expectations on Swamp Jelutung (Dyera polyphylla Miq. Steenis.) on Peatland for Tackling Climate Change

(1) Background: The destruction of peatlands caused by forest fire can significantly damage the ecosystems, flora, and fauna found in forests. Swamp jelutung (Dyera polyphylla) is a tree species that be planted on peatland combined with seasonal plants to provide multiple economic environmental benefits. aim this study analyze biomass carbon stocks above belowground stands swamp an age class 10, 13, 17 years. (2) Methods: Observation plots were determined based classes D. polyphylla plants. using purposive sampling method size 20 m × 5 two sample each plant age. calculation measured diameters living trees without causing any damage. understory was obtained cutting then placing container before weighing recording wet weight. necromass measuring diameter length all wood. (3) Results: amount aboveground (trees) divided into 111.73 ton/ha (17 years), 55.96 (13 50.08 (10 years) classes. root had highest values 18.36 9.45 9.07 years). Meanwhile, organic C contents peat soil under 33.45% 31.32% 26.14% (4) Conclusions: play role restoring ecosystems absorb more CO2 as Therefore, they are useful dealing climate change.
