This aims of the study is to determine the potential for carbon deposits and uptake in Angsana (Pterocarpus indicus Willd) tree species. This research was carried out in December 2019. To determine the potential for carbon storage, the Allometric Equation formula was used to estimate biomass stored in it. A half of the biomass is carbon content stored. The results of this study showed that the largest estimation of carbon storage in green space of Ilir Barat I District at the point of observation of GOR / PSCC with a total carbon content of 17,999 tons / ha with an individual number of 23 species of Angsana plants (Pterocarpus indicus Willd). For the District of Ilir Barat I in the City of Palembang, it is expected to increase the number of Angsana (Pterocarpus indicus Willd) plants because these plants can absorb enough carbon and have strong roots

Konsep blue carbon adalah salah satu upaya untuk mengurangi emisi gas karbon pemicu pemanasan global dengan cara memanfaatkan vegetasi pesisir sebagai penyerap karbon. Ekosistem lamun merupakan salah satu ekosistem pesisir yang dapat menyerap  karbon dalam jumlah besar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kondisi lamun dan kandungan karbon pada lamun di Perairan Pulau Besar Utara, Maumere, Sikka.  Pengamatan lamun menggunakan transek kuadrat 50x50cm menurut panduan LIPI. Sampling lamun dilakukan acak menggunakan seagrass core berdiameter 15 cm di setiap lokasi. Perhitungan kandungan karbon menggunakan metode Loss On Ignition (LOI) yang kemudian dikonversikan dengan nilai biomassa pada setiap titiknya. Jenis lamun yang ditemukan sebanyak 4 spesies yaitu Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii,, Cymodocea rotundata,dan Syringodium isoetifolium. Lokasi pengamatan memiliki tutupan lamun sangat padat. Nilai biomassa dibawah  dan diatas substrat pada lokasi pengamatan didapat nilai 424,60 gbk/m2  dan 79,67 gbk/m2. Total kandungan karbon pada lokasi pengamatan  adalah 41,95 gC/m2. Kandungan karbon terbesar disimpan pada jaringan lamun (akar dan rhizoma) dengan spesies E. acoroides sebagai penyumbang nilai biomassa  dan kandungan karbon tertinggi. Lokasi perairan Pulau Besar Utara, Maumere memiliki kondisi perairan yang baik dengan kerapatan lamun yang tinggi, secara umum kandungan karbon yang terdapat pada perairan tersebut memiliki kandungan yang tinggi. Kondisi lamun yang baik akan memiliki simpanan karbon yang baik dan hal ini merupakan salah satu upaya dalam mitigasi perubahan iklim sekaligus menjaga kelestarian laut.  The concept of blue carbon is one of the efforts to reduce carbon gas emissions that trigger global warming by utilizing coastal vegetation as a carbon sink. Seagrass ecosystems are one of the coastal ecosystems that can absorb large amounts of carbon. This study aims to find seagrass conditions and carbon content in seagrasses on the waters of Besar Utara Island, Maumere, Sikka. Seagrass observations used a 50x50cm quadrant transect according to the LIPI guideline, 2017. Seagrass sampling was using seagrass cores with 15cm diameter in each location. Calculation of carbon content using the Loss On Ignition (LOI) method which is then converted to biomass values at each point. Seagrass species found in location sampling were 4 species, namely Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, Cymodocea rotundata, and Syringodium isoetifolium. The Location  has very dense seagrass cover. Biomass values below and above the substrate at location sampling (424.60 gbk / m2 and 79.67 gbk / m2). The total carbon content in location sampling is 41.95 gC / m2. The largest carbon content is stored in seagrass tissues (roots and rhizomes) with E. acoroides as a contributor to the highest biomass and carbon content. The location of Besar North island, Maumere has good water conditions with high seagrass density, in general the carbon storage at the location of Besar North island is high condition. Seagrass with good condition will have good carbon storage and this is one of the efforts in mitigating climate change at once preserving the sea.

Two orthic profiles, widely separated geographically, of each of four parent materials—lacustrine, alluvial–lacustrine, glacial till, and Aeolian—were selected at undisturbed sites within each of the Brown, Dark Brown, and Thin Black soil zones. Material from the Ah and Bm horizons was subjected to solvent extraction, and for each sample the total organic carbon of seven different fractions was determined.The efficiency of the procedure in extracting humus carbon decreased as the total carbon content of the soil increased. Total organic matter, the first humic acid fraction, and the combined total of the three humic acid fractions showed significant differences between soil zones. The only significant separation between all four parent materials was made by the alcohol-benzene fraction. Other parent material separations were possible only following the summation of data of several fractions, such as the three humic acid fractions or the two fulvic acid fractions. A simplification of the procedure in case of soils of one Order and a modification to overcome the impeding effect of increased carbon content are requisite.

Abstract Seagrass ecosystems are important contributors to mitigation of climate change, since they are responsible for large carbon sinks. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the importance of variability of carbon storage in various ecosystems. In this study, we estimated carbon storage in several structurally different seagrass meadows along the west coast of Thailand and determined whether degree of exposure, human disturbance, and meadow type influenced carbon storage within these meadows. Carbon content within the living vegetation was on average 3±2.7 Mg ha−1, whilst average storage of carbon in the sediment was 122±35.3 Mg ha−1. Meadow type and disturbance had a significant influence on total carbon storage in the ecosystem, while the degree of exposure of the bay did not show great differences. Uniform meadows had a higher average total carbon storage than mixed meadows (133±36.2 and 110±41.3 Mg ha−1, respectively). Undisturbed meadows had a higher average total carbon storage than disturbed ones (140±36.5 and 103±34.8 Mg ha−1, respectively). The results obtained contribute to our understanding of carbon storage on an ecosystem scale and can provide a baseline for proper management, conservation, and climate change studies in the region.

 The study was carried out in the Dusung Community Forest (Agroforestry) area of ​​Toisapu Negeri Hutumuri Hamlet, South Leitimur Sub-District, Ambon City in August - October 2018 to determine the relationship between stand volume and stored biomass for scale plots in dusung agroforestry areas in Toisapu Hamlet. For this reason, it begins with an inventory of potential at seedling, sapling, pole and tree levels so that information and data on the actual potential of carbon content in the dusung system are obtained based on the value of the diversity of stand volume and biomass content. The results of the three measurement plots showed that the highest biomass was seen to be dominated by Durian, Pala and Langsat and Duku and Clove plants. Based on the calculation of the biomass value of the total carbon content in the three plots, it can be seen biomass potential for a total 400 m² plot area or 0.04 ha for the three plots with an area of ​​1,200 m² or 0.12 ha having a total biomass of 50,783.77 Kg / m² multiplied by the assumption of 0.5% of the total amount of tree biomass and poles so that the total carbon content stored in the three plots is 25,391.88 kg / m² or 2,539.19 tons / ha.

Total carbon content of the atmospheric suspended particulate matters consisted of as high as 89-93% organic carbon (OC) in Ulaanbaatar aerosol without showing seasonal variation. However, limited aerosol measurements have been conducted on these OC rich aerosols particularly for high molecular weight constituents. In order to address the gap above, abundance of high molecular weight humic-like substances (HULIS) in total suspended particulates (TSP) from Ulaanbaatar atmospheric aerosol were determined for the first time. HULIS molecular structure was characterised for different seasons using carbon content and UV absorbance measurements coupled with solid phase extraction methods. Although, HULIS contributions to water soluble organic fraction of the winter and summer aerosols were similar HULIS carbon concentration was higher in winter samples (9-37 mg·L-1) than in summer (2-6 mg·L-1). Consequently quantity of aromatic moieties and degree of aromaticity varied between seasons.
