Stored carbon in the aboveground biomass of rubber (Hevea brasiliensis Müell. Arg.) plantations at different ages

Hevea brasiliensis Müell. Arg plantations contribute to the reduction of atmospheric carbon dioxide by fixing carbon through photosynthesis and storing it in the tree components (leaves, branches, stems, barks and roots) and by their transformation to stabilized forms of soil organic matter. The obj...

description Hevea brasiliensis Müell. Arg plantations contribute to the reduction of atmospheric carbon dioxide by fixing carbon through photosynthesis and storing it in the tree components (leaves, branches, stems, barks and roots) and by their transformation to stabilized forms of soil organic matter. The objective of this study was to determine the stored carbon in the whole aboveground biomass in 5, 9, 15, 25, 32 and 51-year-old plantations, through a forest inventory and the use of allometric equations in Tabasco, Mexico. The stored carbon was determined using linear regression and mean values were analyzed by the Tukey test (p < 0.05) with the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) program. Results indicated that the carbon concentration varies with age; in 51-year-old plantation the stored carbon in stem was 192.32 Mg ha-1, in branches was 64.75 Mg ha-1 and in the whole tree was 257.07 Mg ha-1, while 5-year plantations had values of 16.65, 9.63 y 26.28 Mg ha-1, respectively. The results indicated that H. brasiliensis plantations can be considered a potential source of mitigation of climate change.

The results indicated that H. brasiliensis plantations can be considered a potential source of mitigation of climate change. Las plantaciones de hule (Hevea brasiliensis Müell. Arg.) contribuyen a la reducción de dióxido de carbono en la atmósfera al fijar carbono a través de la fotosíntesis y almacenarlo en cada uno de los componentes del árbol (hojas, ramas, fustes, cortezas y raíces) y por la transformación de residuos orgánicos en materia orgánica estabilizada en el suelo. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar el carbono almacenado en la biomasa aérea de plantaciones de hule en edades de 5, 9, 15, 25, 32 y 51 años, mediante el uso de inventario dasométrico y ecuaciones alométricas en Tabasco, México. El carbono almacenado se determinó a través de la regresión lineal y se analizó mediante comparación de medias de Tukey (p < 0.05) con el programa Statistical Analysis System (SAS). El contenido de carbono varía en cada una de las edades; en la plantación de 51 años el carbono almacenado en el fuste fue 192.32 Mg ha-1, en las ramas fue 64.75 Mg ha-1 y el total aéreo del árbol fue 257.07 Mg ha-1, mientras que en la plantación de 5 años los valores fueron 16.65 Mg ha-1, 9.63 Mg ha-1 y 26.28 Mg ha-1, respectivamente. Los resultados indican que H. brasiliensis puede considerarse como una fuente potencial de mitigación ante el cambio climático.
