Carbon Stocks on Forestland of the United States

This data set provides current forest carbon stocks and change in the United States for public and private owners, consistent with the official 2010 U.S. greenhouse gas inventory, but with improved data sources for three states. Results are presented by National Forest System region and by individual national forest. Relevant U.S. carbon statistics include average year of measurement, forestland areas, average carbon stock per hectare (carbon density), and total carbon and uncertainties estimated from the most recent FIA inventory for each ownership. The carbon stocks (and their corresponding forestland areas) are based on data from different survey years, but the mean survey year is 2005.
