“…According to Siarudin and Indrayana (2015), if Gmelina arborea is harvested at the age of 14 years, it has a total volume of 122 m 3 ha -1 and average diameter of 15 cm, whereas if harvested at the age of 20 years, the diameter is 20 cm and the total volume is 146 m 3 ha -1 . This means that the age of a stand also influences the biomass and the amount of carbon stored in a stand (Lukito and Rohmatiah 2013). This means that the age of a stand also influences the biomass and the amount of carbon stored in a stand (Lukito and Rohmatiah 2013).…”

This means that the age of a stand also influences the biomass and the amount of carbon stored in a stand (Lukito and Rohmatiah 2013). The graphs presented in Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5 are in line with Kristiningrum et al (2019), Winarni et al (2017) and Dinga (2014) in which the growth of T. grandis and G. arborea exhibited certain characteristics, as follow: CAI curve rapidly reached the peak and from there declined immediately, whereas the MAI curve climbed and declined slowly.…”

“…There is a growing paradigm that forest management is not only aimed to produce timber and non-timber products, but also to deliver various ecosystem services. One of forest ecosystem services is the sequestration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere through photosynthesis and to store it in forest biomass (Lukito and Rohmatiah 2013). The carbon stored in forest biomass can help mitigate climate change in the form of global warming (Birdsey and Pan 2015;Calfapietra et al 2015;Zeng et al 2018;Pandey et al 2019).…”

Abstract. Ruslim Y, Sandalayuk D, Kristiningrum R, Alam AS. 2021. Estimation of Above Ground Biomass and carbon stocks of Tectona grandis and Gmelina arborea stand in Gorontalo Province, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 1497-1508. Plantation forest plays an important role to fulfill timber needs, while more recently plantation forest is increasingly acknowledged to sequester and store carbon which can mitigate climate change and also as carbon sequestration for the environment. This study aimed to calculate the stand potential, stand biomass and carbon stocks of teak (Tectona grandis) and gmelina (Gmelina arborea) stands in the context of land after being abandoned in Gorontalo Province, Indonesia. Four plots with size of one hectare each were sampled in which each species (i.e. teak and gmelina) consisted of two plots. In each plot, the diameter at the breast-high (1.3 m) and the height of each individual were recorded. Data analysis included growth parameters of the stands (i.e., Mean Annual Increment/MAI and Current Annual Increment/CAI) and above-ground biomass and carbon sequestered by the stands. Simple linear regression using polynomial trendline was used to determine the relationship between variables and the degree of the relationship. The results showed that the maximum growth of teak stands at Plots I and II reached a maximum point at the age of 32 and 25 years with the total volume of 307.50 and 254.81 m3ha-1, respectively. While the maximum growth of gmelina stands at Plots I and II reached a maximum point at the age of 15 years with the total volume of 190.54 and 251.80 m3ha-1, respectively. The biomass content in teak stands at Plots I and II and gmelina stands at Plots I and II were respectively 267.83; 221.94; 104.03 and 137.48 tons ha-1. Meanwhile, the carbon content in teak stands at Plots I and II and gmelina stands at Plots I and II were respectively 125.88; 104.31; 48.90; and 64.62 tons ha-1. The results of the regression analysis suggest that there was strong relationship between carbon sequestered and the age of the stands as well as total basal area. The results of this study suggest that Tectona grandis is more potential to be developed as plantation forest than Gmelina arborea when aiming at carbon sequestration and biomass production.

Can Bangladesh bring back the green cover through indigenous species plantation?

Per capita forestland in Bangladesh is declining at an alarming rate. The recurrent anthropogenic disturbances have rendered the natural forests inhospitable for the natural regeneration and growth of wild plant associates, causing a net loss of biodiversity. Instead of native species plantation, exotic species have become an increasingly important source of timber, which negatively impacts the natural habitats. Hence, the study explored different options for native species plantation based on habitat types and the level of degradation. It is revealed that natural succession is suitable for increasing the canopy coverage in natural forest areas. In the core and buffer zones of each forest natural regeneration should be facilitated to maintain the ecological balance and to ensure continuous forest coverage. In addition, direct seeding in the buffer zone and degraded forest areas can improve the naturalness. Advanced regeneration of rare or endangered species can protect the species from extinction. Very fast-growing and timbering native species should be planted in the encroached areas. The deep-rooted species can reinforce riverbanks against erosion better than the shallow-rooted ground cover. Trees with large canopies and deep roots can protect the coastal belt. Screw pine (Pandanus) can grow on dunes and has thick ‘prop roots’ to anchor itself in the loose sand. Tanguya plantation should consist of growing annual crops along with forest trees during the early establishment of forest plantations on the hills. Fast-growing and timbering trees can increase the green cover in the fallow land. The ornamental trees simultaneously can increase the green cover and beauty in urban areas.
