"Carbon stocks and productivity in forest plantations (Kyoto forests) in Friuli Venezia Giulia (Italy). Aboveground biomass, increment and carbon stock in a 36 forest plantations chronosequence of different ages were quantified. Results have been extrapolated in time using the Richards model. Maximum carbon stock was measured in 23 years old plantations (37 tC ha-1) and annual carbon stock rate occurs at 9 years (3.4 tC ha-1 year-1). After this age it decreases to reach 0.40 tC ha-1 year-1 at 23 years after plantation."
Cambiamento Climatico, Deforestazione e Destino dell'Amazzonia
(2008) Alberti, Giorgio
"Climate change, deforestation and the fate of Amazon. Climate change, deforestation and the fate of Amazon. Understanding and mitigation the impact of the increasing population and global economic activities on tropical forests is one of the greatest challenges for scientists and policy makers. A summary of some of the latest findings and thinking on this topic has been reported by Malhi and colleagues in a recent paper published on Science. An overview and comments on this paper is herein proposed."
