POTENSI KARBON PADA TEGAKAN HUTAN MANGROVE DI DESA SEBATUAN KABUPATEN SAMBAS
ABSTRACT: This study aimed to
obtain information on the amount of carbon stockin Sustainable Mangrove Park in
Sebatuan village of Sambas district. The analysis of biomass, carbonstock, and
canopy cover in mangrove forest applied survey method using a line with thecontinous
plot. The placement of the lines started about 20 meters from the shore lineuntil
it reached the river on the other side, with 50 meters distance between lines.Within
each line, a 10 x 10 meters plot were made for the assessment of tree and of
treecanopy cover. The results showed dense canopy cover classes with the number
of plots as many as 41 plots with 86,0 % canopy cover had stock of carbon of
31,04 tons/ha equivalent to 113,92 tons CO2/ha. Canopy cover class with the
number of plots as many as 31 pieces with 57,4% canopy cover has a carbon stock
of 22,22 tonnes/ha equivalentto 81,55 tons CO2/ha. Thess results suggested that
canopy density affectthe amount ofcarbon stock, yet, the canopy cover class has
a different potency.
