Comment on “Carbon in Trees in Tasmanian State Forest”

Table 2

Carbon deficit and CCC for State forests based on data in Moroni et al. [1], accounting for wet eucalypt only. Values were rounded to 3 sig. fig. not during calculations but for presentation. ^a: “110wawr” = age≥110 yrs, with and without regrowth.
