- Abstract
Planted forests stand out in the context of greenhouse gas mitigation, because they are renewable stocks that provide perpetuity to carbon stocks. The objective was to quantify the aboveground biomass and carbon stock in a commercial plantation of paricá (Schizolobium parahyba var. amazonicum) in Rolim de Moura, Rondônia. Trees were selected in five diameters at breast height (DBH) classes, defined by the forest inventory. The trees were cut down and the stem, bark, twigs and leaves were separated. For basic density, the highest values were found in DBH classes between 19.4 and 28.2 cm (380 kg m-3 and 345 kg m-3). The plantation accumulated 41.94 Mg ha-1 of total biomass and the intermediate classes (10.6 to 19.4 cm) represented 84% of this biomass. The biomass and carbon content accumulated in each compartment increased in the following order: stem > twig > leaf > bark. The stem biomass represented 72.2% of the total estimated in the plantation. The total carbon stock found for the plantation was around 16.6 Mg ha-1, which was distributed in 74.9% for the stem, 6.3% for bark, 10.4% for branches and 8.3% for leaves. The paricá plantation presented considerable accumulations of biomass and carbon and can contribute to carbon credit programs.
