Abstract: The forest areas of the upper reaches of the Minjiang River estuary are used as the research object and based on two types of resources survey data in two aspects of forest vegetation types and different age groups,analysis was done on the biomass estimation distribution and the carbon storage and carbon density distribution of the main forest types.The results shows that carbon density distribution in addition to the western mountain area,shows a rising pattern from east to west,carbon density ranges mainly between 20t/hm2 and 40t/hm2 in the area of human activity.The carbon storage of the forests of different ages is in an ascending order as follows:middle-aged forest (82 171.91t)>young growth (43 692.94t)> near mature forest (18 851.71t)>mature forest (5 789.81t),carbon density in different age groups of coniferous forest,broad-leaved forest,coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest is in an ascending order as follows:mature forest carbon density>near mature forest carbon density>middle aged forest carbon density>sapling forest carbon density.With the increase of age class,carbon density increases,and with the growth of the forests,carbon sequestration capacity increases gradually.

Key words: the Minjiang River, carbon density, distribution
