Are there any differences in carbon concentration among species of high conservation value forests in Northern Mexico?

Despite the publication of numerous studies about carbon (C) concentration in various tree components, few have investigated the C variation in spatially restricted tree species. We evaluated differences in C concentrations among four conifer species of High Value Conservation Forests (HVCF) in nort...

description Despite the publication of numerous studies about carbon (C) concentration in various tree components, few have investigated the C variation in spatially restricted tree species. We evaluated differences in C concentrations among four conifer species of High Value Conservation Forests (HVCF) in northern Mexico. Total carbon concentration (TOC) analyses were performed for Cupressus lusitanica Mill, Picea chihuahuana Mtz., Abies durangensis Mtz., and Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb. Carbon concentration varies within the structural tree component, but no significant difference was found when the aerial samples were classified based on the point of cardinal extraction from where they were taken. The species, P. menziesii, A. durangensis, and P. chihuahuana showed the lowest C concentration in the stems, while C. lusitanica had the highest.

A pesar de la publicación de numerosos estudios sobre la concentración de carbono (C) en diversos componentes del árbol, pocos han investigado la variación entre especies de distribución restringida y sus componentes. Se investigaron las diferencias en las concentraciones de C entre las cuatro especies de coníferas de alto valor de conservación (Bosques HVCF) en el norte de México. Se realizó un análisis de la concentración total de carbono (TOC) para Cupressus lusitanica Mill., Picea chihuahuana Mtz., Abies durangensis Mtz., y Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb. La concentración de C varía dentro del componente estructural de árbol, pero no se encontró ninguna diferencia significativa en la concentración de C según la orientación de la extracción cardinal de muestras de tejidos aéreos. Las especies, P. menziesii Mirb., A. durangensis Mtz. y P. chihuahuana Mtz., resultaron tener la menor concentración de contenido de carbono en los tallos, mientras que C. lusitanica Mill. tuvo la mayor.
