Forest plays an important role in global carbon cycle. With increasing concern for rising CO2 concentrations, the role of forests as long term carbon pool for assimilation of atmospheric CO2 is being increasingly realized. In this context, the current study aims to estimate the biomass production and carbon sequestration potential of Yeka Forest in the North of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The carbon stock in the different carbon pools and analysis of the influence of the environmental variables were studied by collecting the data using quadrat size of 10m X 20 m distributed along transect lines....
