Can Carbon Sequestration in Tasmanian “Wet” Eucalypt Forests Be Used to Mitigate Climate Change? Forest Succession, the Buffering Effects of Soils, and Landscape Processes Must Be Taken into Account

Figure 1

Iconic Tasmanian wet eucalypt forests. The tree on the left (a) is 100 m tall. The right-hand side image (b) shows mixed forest consisting of mature tall eucalypts (Eucalyptus regnans) and a dense understorey of rainforest species which are about half as tall as the dominant eucalypts.
