Attributes of tree species and their capability of carbon capture in the municipality of Querétaro, México
Attributes of the shrub and tree species components of the tropical deciduous forest within the Municipality of Querétaro, Querétaro are described. We used a random sampling of 36 sites of natural vegetation with exclusion criteria. Sites were delimited to a 25 m × 25 m quadrant. Within the quadrant...

| description | Attributes of the shrub and tree species components of the tropical deciduous forest within the Municipality of Querétaro, Querétaro are described. We used a random sampling of 36 sites of natural vegetation with exclusion criteria. Sites were delimited to a 25 m × 25 m quadrant. Within the quadrant, the species of all individuals of the tree and shrub species greater than 150 cm were identified, not taking into account the Cactaceae and Succulents. Measurements were made of the trees: basal diameter, diameter at breast height, total tree height, canopy height and diameter; carbon capture by species was estimated taking into account the climatic site variables, where they grow. Twenty-two species of shrubs and trees were observed, with Acacia schaffneri, Bursera fagaroides, Forestiera phillyreoides, Karwinskia humboldtiana, Dodonaea viscosa and Ipomea murucoides being the most abundant, while the ones with the highest carbon content are species such as: Prosopis laevigata and Leucaena leucocephala and the less abundant were Randia thurberi and Erytrina coralloides. These results are indispensable for developing and designing proposals for reforestation and conservation of the tropical deciduous forest. |

Se describen atributos de especies arbustivas y arbóreas, componentes del bosque tropical caducifolio dentro del Municipio de Querétaro, Querétaro. Se utilizó un muestreo aleatorio de 36 sitios de vegetación natural con criterios de exclusión. Para cada sitio se delimitó un cuadrante de 25 m × 25 m. Dentro del cuadrante se identificaron y evaluaron el total de especies arbóreas y arbustivas mayores a 150 cm de altura, excluyendo especies de cactáceas y suculentas. Se evaluaron atributos de los árboles como: diámetro basal, diámetro a la altura del pecho, altura total del árbol, altura de la copa, diámetro de copa y se estimó la capacidad de captura de carbono por especie considerando las variables climáticas del sitio donde crecen. Se observaron 22 especies de arbustos y árboles dentro las que destacan por su abundancia: Acacia schaffneri, Bursera fagaroides, Forestiera phillyreoides, Karwinskia humboldtiana, Dodonaea viscosa e Ipomea murucoides, mientras las que presentan mayor potencial de almacenar carbono son: Prosopis laevigata y Leucaena leucocephala; en contraparte, las menos abundantes fueron: Randia thurberi y Erytrina coralloides. Estos resultados son indispensables para el desarrollo y diseño de propuestas de conservación y reforestación del bosque tropical caducifolio.
