Sarg.) forest in three categories of forest disturbance, protected, moderately disturbed, and highly disturbed. In the first year, total biomass was 14.7.t.ha-1 in highly disturbed site, 94.46 t.ha-1 in moderately disturbed forest, and 112.0 t.ha-1 in protected forest. The soil organic carbon in the top 20 cm of soil ranged from 0.63 to 1.2%. The total rate of carbon sequestration was 0.60 (t/ha).a-lon the highly disturbed site, 1.03 (t/ha)a-1 on the moderately disturbed site, and 4.3 (t/ha).a-1 on the protectedsite.
