Total AG carbon stock (ton ha-1) AG Rate of carbon sequestration (ton ha-1 year-1) Accuracy of biomass estimation (%) 1 Tropical riverine forest 25 178.83 80.47 3.21 17.65 2 Hill Sal forest 75 217.47 97.86 1.30 19.20 3 Pine forest 28 86.02 38.70 1.35 16.14 4 Schima-Castanopsis 22 76.24 34.30 1.56 11.27 5 Alnus nepalensis 18 76.00 34.60 1.92 14.56 Table 2 : Maximum, mean and mode value of height and dbh of forest types S.N.
