Abstract

Carbon negativity is one of the promising strategies to uptake carbon emissions from the atmosphere and reduce carbon emissions to the atmosphere. Forests have been proven to sequester atmospheric carbon emissions through photosynthesis and store them as tree biomass. However, forest operations also emit carbon into the atmosphere via fertilizer, pesticides, and fuel consumption. This study aims to compare the carbon negativity of black locusts and poplar plantations in different management systems. Carbon dynamics in short and long-rotation systems was analysed using CO 2 FIX software. Meanwhile, the carbon emission in forest operations was estimated through the life cycle assessment method. In the simulation period of 45 years, black locust and poplar plantations in short and long-term management systems have shown carbon negativity. The amount of carbon sequestration was higher than carbon emission. Furthermore, carbon negativity in long-rotation management systems was better than in short-rotation coppice management systems.
