To accurately estimate carbon pool and features of artificial Pinus tabulaeformis in Ziwuling forest area
we use wet-burn method to account carbon storage and density on the spatial scale and analyze distribution characteristics at different levels. Results show that the mean carbon rate is 0.446 2
but it is quite different on spatial scale and has great significance between them. The total carbon storage is 7.649 8 Tg and its density is 164.55 t/hm2. However
layers of carbon storage have the order of soil layertree layerlitter layerherb layershrub layer
showing the uneven distribution of the characteristics on spatial scale. In addition
artificial Pinus tabulaeformis in Ziwuling forest area has grown for only about 20 years and still grows well. If efficient management measures are taken for artificial Pinus tabulaeformis
its communities will have a greater potential for carbon sequestration.
