A study was
conducted to measure carbon stock in two Van Panchayat forest of Garhwal
Himalaya. For comparative study, we selected the degraded and non-degraded site
in Pine and Oak Forest and estimated total carbon stock (above and below
ground).
Van
Panchayat are managing the forest in Uttarakhand from British Period. The
aim of the research was to estimate the tree density, tree diversity,biomass
and carbon stocks in degraded and non-degraded sites in both forests for forest
management through Van Panchayat.
From this
research, we found that non-degraded site contains maximum (Density, total
biomass and carbon stock) as compared to degraded sites. This paper recommends
the importance of forest management committee in Uttarakhand and the world.
