Produksi biomasa gugur serasah dan variasi musimannya dimonitor selama 5 tahun untuk mengamati polamusiman dari gugur serasah dan kontribusi gugur serasah terhadap ekosistem hutan. Gugur serasah dikumpulkansetiap bulan dengan menggunakan 20 perangkap serasah (luas masing-masing perangkap serasah adalah 1 x 1 m2)yang berada pada petak permanen. Seluruh sampel di oven pada suhu 70 ºC. Total gugur serasah adalah 8,36 ±0,39 t ha-1 tahun-1, dengan konstribusi terbesar pada daun (6.55 ± 0.44 t ha-1tahun-1), diikuti oleh komponen yangtidak teridentifikasi (0.69 ±0.2), batang kecil (0.76 ± 0.1), bagian reproduksi (0.16 ± 0.06), and batang besar (0.21± 0.04 t ha-1 tahun-1). Pola musiman menunjukkan bahwa gugur serasah meningkat selama musim hujan. Gugurserasah daun tertinggi berada pada bulan Juli. Jenis-jenis dominan menggugurkan daun utamanya pada pertengahanmusim kering. Total gugur serasah daun dari yang tertinggi ke yang terendah diamati Nauclea lanceolata (0.36 ±0.16), Maesopsis eminii (0.25 ± 0.11), Schima wallichii (0.09 ± 0.02), Pternandra azurea (0.02± 0.01), dan Dyxoxylumdensiflorum (0.01 ± 0.01 t ha-1 tahun-1)
Stok Karbon Dan Biomasa Beberapa Komoditas Tanaman Pertanian Di Bodogol- Taman Nasional Gunung Gede Pangrango – Jawa Barat
The study of carbon stock and biomasa of agricultural commodities was conducted in the Bodogol village, Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park - West Java. The purpose of this research to determine the biomasa, carbon stock and the rate of decomposition of agricultural commodities by using destructive sample and litterbag method. Six of agricultural commodities: green beans/buncis (Phaseolus vulgaris), chilli (Capsicum annum), corn (Zea mays), bean (Vigna cylindrica), peanuts (Arachis hypogaea) and cassava (Manihot esculenta), were calculated their biomasa and carbon stocks. The result showed that the biomasa of agriculture commodities in the range of 0.152 to 4.216 t ha-1, with a carbon stock ranging from 0.01 to 1.83 t ha-1. The decomposition rate (k) of those commodities were k = 5.6 y-1; 5.48 y-1, 5.18 y-1, 5.04 y-1, 4.42 y-1, and k = 1.21 y-1, for Manihot esculenta, Vigna cylindrica, Arachis hypogea, Zea mays, Capsicum annum and Phaseolus vulgaris, respectively
ESTIMASI BIOMASA DAN KARBON TERSIMPAN PADA Pinus merkusii Jungh. & de Vriese DI HUTAN PINUS GN. BUNDER, TN. GN. HALIMUN SALAK
A study on the biomass and carbon stock estimation of Pinus merkusii Jungh. & de Vriese plantation has been conducted on 17-years and 30-years old pine forest in Gunung Bunder, Halimun Salak National Park. The method used was the allometric with non destructive technique. The results showed that pine trees density of 30-years old pine was 542 trees ha-1 ; the basal area (BA) was 26.8 m2 ha-1; trees density of 17-years old pine was 1,398 tree ha-1 with BA was 36.2 m2 ha-1. The estimation of biomass, carbon sinks and CO2 sequestration of 30-years old pine were 203.7, 96.5 and 354.2 ton ha-1, respectively. Meanwhile, the estimation of biomass, carbon sinks and CO2 sequestration of 17-years old pine were 188.3, 86.8 and 318.5 ton ha-1, respectively. Value of the environmental services derived from the CO2 absorption for the development of a pine forest ranged from US.$ 1,847.09 to 2,054.22, at two ages of pine trees

Mangrove blue carbon stocks and dynamics are controlled by hydrogeomorphic settings and land-use change.
Globally, carbon-rich mangrove forests are deforested and degraded due to land-use and land-cover change (LULCC). The impact of mangrove deforestation on carbon emissions has been reported on a global scale; however, uncertainty remains at subnational scales due to geographical variability and field data limitations. We present an assessment of blue carbon storage at five mangrove sites across West Papua Province, Indonesia, a region that supports 10% of the world's mangrove area. The sites are representative of contrasting hydrogeomorphic settings and also capture change over a 25-years LULCC chronosequence. Field-based assessments were conducted across 255 plots covering undisturbed and LULCC-affected mangroves (0-, 5-, 10-, 15- and 25-year-old post-harvest or regenerating forests as well as 15-year-old aquaculture ponds). Undisturbed mangroves stored total ecosystem carbon stocks of 182-2,730 (mean ± SD: 1,087 ± 584) Mg C/ha, with the large variation driven by hydrogeomorphic settings. The highest carbon stocks were found in estuarine interior (EI) mangroves, followed by open coast interior, open coast fringe and EI forests. Forest harvesting did not significantly affect soil carbon stocks, despite an elevated dead wood density relative to undisturbed forests, but it did remove nearly all live biomass. Aquaculture conversion removed 60% of soil carbon stock and 85% of live biomass carbon stock, relative to reference sites. By contrast, mangroves left to regenerate for more than 25 years reached the same level of biomass carbon compared to undisturbed forests, with annual biomass accumulation rates of 3.6 ± 1.1 Mg C ha-1 year-1 . This study shows that hydrogeomorphic setting controls natural dynamics of mangrove blue carbon stocks, while long-term land-use changes affect carbon loss and gain to a substantial degree. Therefore, current land-based climate policies must incorporate landscape and land-use characteristics, and their related carbon management consequences, for more effective emissions reduction targets and restoration outcomes
Safeguarding Imperiled Biodiversity and Evolutionary Processes in the Wallacea Center of Endemism
Safeguarding Imperiled Biodiversity and Evolutionary Processes in the Wallacea Center of Endemism
Wallacea—the meeting point between the Asian and Australian fauna—is one of the world's largest centers of endemism. Twenty-three million years of complex geological history have given rise to a living laboratory for the study of evolution and biodiversity, highly vulnerable to anthropogenic pressures. In the present article, we review the historic and contemporary processes shaping Wallacea's biodiversity and explore ways to conserve its unique ecosystems. Although remoteness has spared many Wallacean islands from the severe overexploitation that characterizes many tropical regions, industrial-scale expansion of agriculture, mining, aquaculture and fisheries is damaging terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, denuding endemics from communities, and threatening a long-term legacy of impoverished human populations. An impending biodiversity catastrophe demands collaborative actions to improve community-based management, minimize environmental impacts, monitor threatened species, and reduce wildlife trade. Securing a positive future for Wallacea's imperiled ecosystems requires a fundamental shift away from managing marine and terrestrial realms independently
