Abstract:In the Central Himalayas, where environmental conditions vary greatly,
understanding the biophysical limitations on forest carbon is crucial
for accurately determining the region’s forest carbon stocks. This study
investigates the role of climate and disturbance on the spatial
variation of two key forest carbon pools: aboveground carbon (AGC) and
soil organic carbon (SOC). Using field-observed plot-level carbon pool
estimates from Nepal’s national forest inventory and structural equation
modeling, we explore t… Show more
