Abstract:

The changes of the structure and volume of forest resources were predicted in Yunnan Province by using the markov chain model and compound interest formula from 2012 to 2027,based on forest resources inventory data in 2002,2007 and 2012.The biomass,carbon storage and carbon density of forest vegetation in Yunnan Province were estimated by applying the biomass regression model and the carbon content of vegetation.The results shows that in the next sixteen years,the area and volume of forest resources in Yunnan Province will show a double growth trend.The annual average growth rate of area and volume are 0.5% and 2.94%.The carbon storage and the average carbon density of forest vegetation will increase continuously.The carbon storage will increase from 890.40Tg to 1265.34Tg,with an annual average growth rate of 2.81%.The carbon density will increase from 41.89 Mg/hm2 to 55.41 Mg/hm2,with an annual average growth rate of 2.15%.With the maturity of the young and middle-aged forests,and improvement of forest quality because of forest tending,the forest vegetation has great potential to stock carbon in Yunnan Province.

Key words: forest resources, carbon storage, carbon density, Yunnan Province
