Assessing the potential for carbon storage enhancement in forests of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, China by Zhizhong Chen, Mei Zan, Jingjing Kong

“…This study integrates multi-source remote sensing and forest inventory data to model Xinjiang’s forest age and carbon density (2019 baseline: 186.76 Mg/hm2 biomass, 93.38 Mg/hm2 carbon density, 46-year average age), revealing a south-to-north “low-high-low” spatial pattern. Using predictive models excluding anthropogenic and natural disturbances, we project forest carbon stock to reach 203.71 ± 2.31 Tg C by 2030 and 283.08 ± 4.23 Tg C by 2060, with declining carbon sink rates (3.67 ± 0.57 Tg C/a in 2019–2030 vs. 2.65 ± 0.56 Tg C/a in 2031–2060). …”
