Root Biomass Estimation in Natural and Planted Mangrove

Belowground root biomass plays an essential role in the mangrove ecosystem as potential carbon storage, nutrient gain, or sediment accumulation yet is still overlooked. Therefore, estimation of root biomass is necessary. The objective was to determine and compare the belowground root biomass at the...

Root Biomass Estimation in Natural and Planted Mangrove
description Belowground root biomass plays an essential role in the mangrove ecosystem as potential carbon storage, nutrient gain, or sediment accumulation yet is still overlooked. Therefore, estimation of root biomass is necessary. The objective was to determine and compare the belowground root biomass at the natural and planted mangrove ecosystem. We also measured the forest structure and the aboveground biomass. This study was conducted at four stations in Pramuka Island, Pari Island, Rambut Island (2 stations), Seribu Islands, Jakarta.
