| Abstract | This study was conducted to determine forest carbon content, density, and the characteristics of carbon distribution in the Evergreen Broad鄄leaved and Deciduous Broad鄄leaved mixed forest in Lei Gongshan Nature Reserve, Guizhou, China. Results indicated carbon content in the ecosystem varied significantly (P < 0.01) between trees, shrubs, herbs, litter and soil: 418.58 g / kg, 387.26 g / kg, 382.80 g / kg, 378.11 g / kg, and 31.48 g / kg, respectively. Among the various organs of a tree, the carbon content was distributed as follows: trunks > roots > leaves > branches. For shrubs, the carbon content was distributed as: stems > leaves > roots. For herbs, the above ground carbon content was higher than the below ground carbon content, while for all of them, the differences in carbon content among the different organs of a tree, shrub or herb was insignificant (P > 0.05). The average carbon content of all vegetation was 40.02%, when all types (trees, shrubs, and herbs) and all plant organs were considered. The carbon content in the litter of the un鄄decomposed layer was higher than in the semi鄄decomposed layer, though the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). The soil carbon content was highest in the soil at a depth of 0 to 20 cm and soil carbon content generally decreased inversely and significantly with soil depth (P < 0.01). The most of the carbon in the entire ecosystem (234.68 t / hm) was divided |
