Abstract
The tropical forest is an important component in the study of possible climatic changes resulting from increasing levels of atmospheric CO2. A methodology has been developed to estimate total carbon from commercial timber volume and regional soil sample analyses. Peninsular Malaysia is used as a case study.Keywords
