description | In this research, we present predictions of carbon sequestration by pines growing in reforested sites of Durango, Mexico. Four methodologies to predict carbon stocks in standing aboveground biomass were tested. Two models at the whole stand scale and two hybrid models between whole stand, stand class, and individual trees were fitted. A chronosequence of 23 small-scale reforested sites and stem analysis conducted on 60 trees were used to fit model parameters and estimate goodness of fit statistics. A stand class model produced a better fit to measure carbon stocks in aboveground standing biomass. 3 Reforested sites with native pine species are sequestering carbon at differential rates partially explained by density, species, micro site, climate and age of pines. Society is benefiting from the environmental services provided by carbon sequestration and conservation of native coniferous forests. |

En esta investigación, se presentan las proyecciones de secuestro de carbono por pináceas que crecen en proyectos de reforestación de Durango, México. Cuatro metodologías para proyectar los almacenes de carbono en tiempo en la biomasa aérea fueron probados. Fueron ajustados dos modelos al nivel del rodal y dos modelos híbridos que combinan variables predichas al nivel del rodal, al nivel de clases y al nivel de árboles 3 individuales. La fuente de datos consistió de una cronosecuencia de 23 sitios reforestados y análisis troncales realizados en 60 árboles provenientes de la misma reforestación. Un modelo al nivel del rodal produjo las mejores estimaciones en la biomasa aérea y el carbono almacenado. Del modelo se concluye que la vegetación de los sitios reforestados está secuestrando bióxido de carbono a tasas diferenciales explicadas por la densidad, las especies, el micrositio, el clima y la edad. Sin embargo, en general, la tasa de secuestro es mayor en los sitios reforestados que en los bosques nativos. Por consiguiente la sociedad se está beneficiando por este servicio ambiental que prestan los sitios reforestados.
