Carbon stocks and accumulation rates in Pacific Northwest forests: role of stand age, plant community, and productivity

Abstract Forest ecosystems are removing significant amounts of carbon from the atmosphere. Both abiotic resource availability and biotic interactions during forest succession affect C accumulation rates and maximum C stocks. However, the timing and controls on the peak and decline in C accumulation...
