Aboveground biomass and carbon storage Of Rhizophora Spp. In delta Tumpat

Removal of mangrove forest will affect the ecosystems thus the development of the carbon cycle will be disturbed. A study was conducted in five islands in Delta Tumpat, Kelantan to study the aboveground biomass and carbon storage of Rhizophora spp. in mangrove forest. A total of 491 trees belong to...
