Aim of study: Land use and carbon stock changes of Alara Forest Planning Unit (FPU)
between the years of 1997 and 2017 were investigated. Area of study: Alara Forest Planning
Unit (FPU) of Alanya Forest Enterprise (FE) within the boundaries of Antalya province,
southwest Turkey. Material and methods: Data obtained from the forest management plans
for the periods of 1997-2006, 2008-2017 and 2018-2037 were used in the study. Biomass
conversion and expansion factors (BCEF), root to shoot ratios (R) and carbon factors (CF) …
Aim of study
Land use and carbon stock changes of Alara Forest Planning Unit (FPU) between the years of 1997 and 2017 were investigated.
Area of study
Alara Forest Planning Unit (FPU) of Alanya Forest Enterprise (FE) within the boundaries of Antalya province, southwest Turkey.
Material and methods
Data obtained from the forest management plans for the periods of 1997-2006, 2008-2017 and 2018-2037 were used in the study. Biomass conversion and expansion factors (BCEF), root to shoot ratios (R) and carbon factors (CF) were used for carbon stock estimation.
Main results
Total forest area of the Alara FPU decreased from 7497 ha to 7344 ha, while total carbon stock of the forest lands increased by 12.7%, from 1997 to 2017.
Highlights
Despite the reduction of total forest area from 1997 to 2017, carbon stocks of all biomass pools in forest ecosystem raised with the increase of productive forest lands and growing stock.
