“…The resulting C capture value up to 14.82 Mg C ha −1 (Table 6), is low compared to values reported for other forests of northern Mexico: 26.87 Mg C ha −1 [57], 36.42 Mg C ha −1 [58], and 66.42 Mg C ha −1 [59] in Durango, and 37 Mg C ha −1 in Nuevo Leon [60]. In other forests of Chihuahua, C storage is reported as 45.20 Mg C ha −1 for a Pseudotsuga menziesii forest [61] and 46.71 Mg C ha −1 for a temperate mixed pine-oak forest [62], while CONAFOR [63] obtained 6.3 to 16.5 Mg C ha −1 and 16.5 to 28.2 Mg C ha −1 using algorithms.…”

“…The differences in C storage in the above studies may result from differences in the methodology followed, species and age of trees, as well as other factors such as climate and type of soil [64]. The results showed that the annual timber growth in the study area can be up to 1.49 m 3 ha −1 year −1 [17], whereas for the nearby forest of Guadalupe y Calvo Chihuahua values of up to 3 m 3 ha −1 year −1 were found [65], while Nuevo Leon reported an annual timber growth of 2 m 3 ha −1 year −1 [60]. The species richness and C storage values are likely higher, since neither individuals smaller than 7.5 cm in diameter nor the understory were considered in this study.…”

“…C storage and C emissions are unique to tree species and age, type of soil, altitude, and slope, therefore these parameters vary between tropical, temperate, or boreal forests, as well as between natural and managed forests [5]. C storage variations with altitude are crucial in the context of global warming because of their association with temperature [10,[17][18][19][20].…”

“…A rate of deforestation of 0.25% was measured between 1976 and 2000 in temperate pine-oak forests of Mexico, second only to tropical forests in Mexico [28]. The potential of pine-oak and mixed pine-oak forests of northern Mexico to capture C has been the focus of several studies [17,21,[26][27][28][29][30][31][32]. However, and despite these studies, the ecological information of pine-oak forests of northern Mexico remains fragmented in location and time.…”

Maximizing the ability of forests to capture carbon (C) from the atmosphere is critical to mitigate global warming. This is a daunting task as the warming climate is adversely affecting forests with increasing forest fires, pests, and a shift to tree species that can tolerate the newer climate conditions. A large (about 1 million hectares) mixed pine–oak forest in Chihuahua, Mexico, was characterized via 151 plots to determine its floristic diversity and biomass with respect to species, age (tree diameter), and at four altitudinal gradients equally distributed between 1850 and 2850 masl. Higher richness and diversity were found at the altitudinal gradient of 2101–2350 m with 36 species and a Shannon’s index (H’) of 2.95, and the lowest at 2601–2850 m with 17 species and H’ of 2.37. The Sorensen Index showed a high similarity in species composition, with the highest values (71% to 79%) obtained for the 2351–2600 gradient. C storage of the mixed forest increased with altitude from 7.85 Mg C ha−1 in the 1850–2100 m gradient to 14.82 Mg C ha−1 in the 2601–2850 m gradient. C storage in oak decreased with altitude while C storage of pine increased. Viable strategies to maximize C storage under changing climate conditions are discussed, including social safeguards and sale of carbon credits.

“…La pérdida y degradación de los hábitats donde estas especies tienden a desarrollarse puede aludirse principalmente a la fragmentación por actividades silvícolas impactando fuertemente en la diversidad de especies (Lindenmayer y Franklin, 2002;Valdés-Castillo, 2018). Es por lo que para establecer mejores estrategias de manejo sobre todo es especies vulnerables es necesario caracterizar la estructura horizontal y vertical de las masas arbóreas para entender mejor su comportamiento (Aguirre, 2015;García-García et. al., 2020).…”

The ecosystem processes that take place within forest ecosystems have a very close relationship with the structure that they canshow, therefore being able to characterize it allows creating better strategies to maintain and improve them. The present study waselaborated to determine the relationships and competition of Picea, Abies, Pseudotsuga and Cupressus, based on the growth,development, and different types of species mixture in a temperate forest of Durango. A dot pattern analysis was used to evaluateaggregation, species mixture, dominance, and dimensional differentiation. The dasometric data were obtained from 10 permanentplots (2500 m²), considering: diameter> 7.5 cm, height, azimuth, and distance. IVI and different diversity indices were estimated; inaddition, a total of 1576 structural groups were analyzed. The average density for the evaluated areas was 629 N ha-¹, highlightingPinus with 660 N ha-¹, the genera with the highest IVI were Pinus and Picea. Regarding true diversity, the plot obtained the highestvalue. Through the Clark & Evans aggregation index, 90% of the areas showed a clustering trend in the genres included. Throughthe neighborhood indices, the areas showed a moderate mix, with a random and structurally co-dominant distribution.

Introducción Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco es una especie forestal de gran importancia por sus servicios ecosistémicos y su comercialización. Actualmente, se ha documentado que el cambio climático está afectando las poblaciones del norte del continente; sin embargo, no se ha evaluado cómo afectaría esto a la distribución de la especie en el futuro. Objetivo El objetivo de este trabajo fue modelar la idoneidad ambiental y la distribución potencial de P. menziesii en 3 periodos (2040, 2060 y 2080). Metodología Se estimó la idoneidad y distribución potencial, con base en registros y variables bioclimáticas, con ayuda de MaxEnt; se realizaron transferencias a 2 escenarios de emisiones de carbono en 3 periodos; por último, se evaluó la pérdida de extensión y disminución de idoneidad ambiental en porcentaje. Resultados P. menziesii tiene una distribución potencial actual de 164 110 km2, las zonas con mayor idoneidad ambiental (> 0.5) se ubicaron en el norte del país, específicamente en los estados del norte. No obstante, bajo los escenarios de cambio climático, estas áreas sufrieron mayor disminución de la idoneidad ambiental (> 50 %) y se redujo su extensión entre 50.7 % y 92.6 %; en contraste, las poblaciones más resilientes contra el cambio climático fueron las del sur. Conclusiones Pseudotsuga menziesii se ve favorecida por las bajas temperaturas, debido a esto, se espera un decrecimiento drástico en su distribución potencial. Aunada a ello, la idoneidad ambiental bajará a más del 50 % en las regiones norte de la nación. Con una pérdida drástica de superficie, la prevalencia de la especie pudiera encontrarse en un punto de declive.
