| Özet |
| In recent days, climate change is a main global problem which concerns the scientists. Climate change is defined as the change of global mean temperature. While the reasons for global climate change were investigated, the effect of CO2, which is the most important greenhouse gas, was found. In the world the oceans and forests are the biggest carbon sinks. So the forests are very important for climate change and carbon storage. 75% of carbon was stocked by plants in the forests. In this study, we aimed to determine the carbon stock change between 1970 and 2009 in Saraycık Forest Management Chiefdom using the carbon conversion coefficient calculated for Turkey’s forests by Asan (2002). The stand type maps and forest management plans produced in 1970 and 2009 were digitized for calculating the carbon stock. In addition the carbon stock maps were produced with ArcGIS 10.0 software |
