Carbon Sequestration Potential, Its Correlation with Height and Girth of Selected Trees in the Golapbag Campus, Burdwan, West Bengal (india)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present work reveals the carbon sequestration potential of eight selected species of trees which predominate in the Golapbag campus of the University of Burdwan in the West Bengal state of India with an objective to find their utilitarian value in environmental optimization of the area and landscape designing for aesthetic rejuvenation. It was found that Swietenia mahagoni successively followed by Albezia saman, Polyalthia longifolia, Drypetes roxburghii, Mangifera indica, Saraca asoca, Dolichandrone stipulata and Lagestroemia speciosa are with high efficiency to sequester atmospheric CO2. Further attempts to correlate these values with Height and Grith of the concerned species could reveal positive relationship except in case of Swietenia mahagoni, Albezia saman and Mangifera indica respectively. Thus it can be inferred that the tree species have mostly been judiciously used in composing the campus flora.

متن کاملEstimation of carbon sequestration potential stand coppice pertion oak (Quercus brantii) in kamfirooz (Fars provience).
In this study 30 coppice oak trees(Quercus brantii Lindl.) with least diameter of 5 centimeteres were chosen with random classification. Characteristics such as the number of sprouts, the diameter, total height, and the large and small diameter of crown were measured. For this purpose, the diameter ranges of the oak trees were devided into 5 cm classes and at least the growth factors of 3 trees...

Comparison of allometric equations to estimate the above-ground biomass of Populusalba species (Case study; poplar plantations in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, Iran)
Carbon sequestration into plants biomass, especially in fast growing trees is an easier and economically way for dropping off CO2 from atmosphere. This study was carried out in order to investigate above-ground biomass of white poplar (populous alba, L.) plantations that was planted in fourdifferent plant spacing (0.5 × 0.5, 1×1, 2×2 and 4×4 m.) in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province in west of ...
