Pendugaan Potensi Simpanan Biomasa dan Karbon dari Tegakan Jati (Tectona grandis) Tidak Terbakar dan Pasca Kebakaran Permukaan di KPH Indramayu

Abstract

Global warming is the one of forest fires impact in environments. Global warming have impact to make climate changed because the concentration of carbon have increased in the air. The measurement of carbon storage in the forest is the one of important aspect to know the total of carbon. This research aims to estimate and compare carbon storage in the standing teak that unburned and post fire surface. The measurement of standing biomass used the approach volume method while undergrowth and litter used destructive method. The result show that the biomass potency in surface fires area is 46.34 tons/ha is bigger than unburned area is 41.39 tons/ha. Estimation of potency of carbon storage is proportional to the biomass potency. Carbon storage in surface fires area is 23.17 tonsC/ha and in unburned area is 20.69 tonsC/ha.
