e0“Medium-diameter trees store the most carbon, and very large-diameter trees, which are very poorly represented, store less carbon”
e1“The number of individuals and small-diameter trees has little influence on the carbon stocks in the trees”
e2“In another way, wood density and the basal areas influence the carbon storage of the trees”
