The establishment of forest plantations is an excellent silvicultural alternative to improve atmospheric carbon (C) sequestration for climate change mitigation. In recent years, the importance of forest growth and C dynamics at different stand ages have drawn huge attention for investigation. To evaluate the impacts of different stand ages on the C storage capacity of Castanopsis hystrix plantations ecosystems, we measured biomass and C content in trees, understory, litter, and soil components from field measurements at different stand ages, i.e., 6-, 10-, 15-, 25-, and 34-year-old stands. Results showed that the C stocks in trees, understory vegetation, litter, soil and the whole ecosystem increased steadily with stand age. C. hystrix C storage capacity in the 6-, 10-, 15-, 25-, and 34-year-old stands were 29.17, 56.18, 85.60, 132.19 and 157.79 Mg ha-1, respectively, while the total ecosystem C storage capacity was 68.11, 106.11, 136.13, 187.34 and 226.14 Mg ha-1, respectively. Meanwhile, the C sequestration rate in the 6-10, 10-15, 15-25 and 25-35-year-old stands were 675.28, 588.35, 465.97 and 284.39 g m2 year-1, respectively. Similarly, total biomass of trees, understory, and litter increased with stand age. Our study indicated that C. hystrix plantations are still developing in the area, since live biomass and soil C continue to accumulate despite reduced C sequestration rates. The information provided here highlight the C stock and C sequestration rates of C. hystrix at different stand ages, providing baseline information on the C dynamics of young and older stand of C. hystrix in this region; Hence, such knowledge could be useful for designing more realistic policies to mitigate climate change, such as programs to maintain continuous forest growth.
