Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim of\nthis research was to estimate the total wooden stock and above-ground biomass of\nCalabrian pine at Al-Kanaais site in\nthe eastern foothill of the coastal mountains in Syria. Field measurements were\ndone in summer 2018. Five circular samples were taken, the area of each plot\nwas 400 m2<\/sup>. The following parameters were taken for each plot: trees\nnumber, diameter at breast height and total trees height. Fifteen trees were\nchosen covering diameter classes of the studied site, to estimate form factor\nand tree biomass. Total wooden stock, above-ground\nbiomass and mean annual increment of Calabrian pine trees were calculated.  A power equation with diameter at breast\nheight was used to estimate total above-ground biomass of all trees, this\nequation had a high R-squared (R2<\/sup> = 0.91). The results showed that\nthe mean value of the form factor of Calabrian pine was 0.39, and the wooden stock\nvalue reached to 232.84 m3<\/sup>\/ha with average age of 73 years and tree\ndensity of 775 trees\/ha. The average annual increment was 3.18 m3<\/sup>\/ha\/year.\nThe results of this study revealed that study area had good total above-ground\nbiomass value about 430.43 ton\/ha. The results of this research could be an\nimportant basis for future studies, which will help in the development and\nmanagement of the Calabrian pine sites at the eastern foothill of the coastal\nmountains in Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key words:<\/strong> Pinus brutia<\/em>, Wooden stock, <\/strong>Total above-ground biomass, Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
