Vegetation Inventory, Biomass and Carbon Stock in The Government Office Complex of Sleman Regency

Abstract

The government office complex of Sleman Regency has an important role that functions as a place to fulfill the needs of public services and public administration. The activity of using office equipment and dense transportation mobility is one of the places that needs to be controlled for the quality of the environment. Green open space which is dominated by plants in the Sleman Regency Office Complex is important for overcoming environmental problems. This study examines the inventory of tree stand vegetation, analyzes tree biomass and carbon stocks in the Government Office Complex of Sleman Regency. The data used are primary data and vegetation data sampling using the whole tree census method at the Government Office Complex of Sleman Regency. The tree species inventory records tree species and diameters, tree biomass is calculated using the Allometric Coefficient Value Formula and carbon stocks are derived from the calculation of the carbon content of the biomass. The results of the research on vegetation inventory from 19 offices in the Government Office Complex of Sleman Regency covering an area of 4.85 ha, there are 215 trees with 38 types of vegetation. The total tree biomass is 2,999,950.49 kg with a potential tree biomass per hectare of 618,546.49 kg/ha. Total carbon stock is 21,409,976.73 kg with potential carbon stock per hectare of 290,716.85 kg/ha. The larger the diameter of the tree, the greater the tree's biomass and carbon stock, the smaller the diameter of the tree, the smaller the tree's biomass and carbon stock.
