    Forest carbon stocks in woody plants of Tara Gedam Forest: Implication for climate change mitigation

    Science, Technology and Arts Research Journal, 2014
    The overall objective of this study was to estimate the carbon stock potentials of Tara Gedam forest, Ethiopia, as potential sink for climate change mitigation. Forest plays an important role in the global carbon cycle as carbon sinks of the terrestrial ecosystem. The data was collected from the field by measuring plants with a DBH of >5cm and the carbon stocks of each plant were analysed.
