Carbon stock estimation for Harumanis plantation using remote sensing / Nadia Nabilla Mohd Shahidan
Carbon stock estimation is a process of determining the amount of carbon stored in an environment, typically in the living biomass or soil. There are many studies that have been conducted in order to find the best method in estimating the carbon stock whether in the forest or plantation. The study w...

Carbon stock estimation is a process of determining the amount of carbon stored in an environment, typically in the living biomass or soil. There are many studies that have been conducted in order to find the best method in estimating the carbon stock whether in the forest or plantation.

In this study, a non-destructive approach had been utilised in order to measure the aboveground biomass (AGB) and carbon stocks (CS) value of mango tree. Few data from field measurements were collected such as diameter at breast height (DBH) and position of trees.
