MA 86: Atmospheric carbon removal capacity of a mangrove ecosystem in a micro...
Abstract

Bruguiera gymnorrhiza and Lumnitzera racemosa are two species of true mangroves commonly found in Sri Lankan mangrove areas. Determination of amount of carbon assimilated by these two species therefore, is of considerable importance to estimate the carbon fixing capacity of Sri Lankan mangrove areas. Objective of the present study therefore, is to develop allometric relationships between biomass of stems, leaves, below and above ground roots with easily measured variables such as girth/ di...
