Research Abstract |
For mangrove forests which grew in different site environments and developmental stages, we clarified their dynamics using tree census data from the viewpoint of biomass change was clarified, and the influence which the difference between the site environment and a developmental stage has on the process of carbon accumulation was evaluated. Moreover, in order to clarify the carbon accumulative process in a peat bed, from a part for each wood, the undisturbed core was extracted, chemical composition and chemical structure of the peat organic matter were clarified, and the structural stability nature of the peat organic matter was evaluated. Furthermore, the technology of grasping a carbon accumulative process with high precision using satellite technology was developed.
