Quantifying Tree Biomass Carbon Stocks and Fluxes in Agricultural Landscapes

Shem Kuyah, Cheikh Mbow, Gudeta W. Sileshi, Meine van Noordwijk, Katherine L. Tully and Todd S. Rosenstock

Abstrak

This chapter presents methods to quantify carbon stocks and carbon
stock changes in biomass of trees in agricultural landscapes. Specifically it assesses
approaches for their applicability to smallholder farms and other tree enterprises in
agricultural landscapes. Measurement techniques are evaluated across three criteria:
accuracy, cost, and scale. We then recommend techniques appropriate for users
looking to quantify carbon in tree biomass at the whole-farm and landscape scales.
A basic understanding of the carbon cycle and the concepts of biomass assessment
is assumed.
