Abstract

The preservation of national parks has emerged as a significant component of Indonesia’s climate mitigation efforts, primarily due to its substantial carbon stocks. However, little is known about the potential carbon stored in deadwoods within these areas. This study aims to estimate fallen deadwood carbon stocks in four national parks in Indonesia. The results show that the density of deadwood in study areas ranges from 0.26 – 0.79 g cm-3. Deadwood volume varies between 247.37 – 388.50 cm3. Bukit Tigapuluh National Park has the highest fallen deadwood biomass and carbon stock, accounting for 261.35 and 122.83 tons ha-1, respectively, followed by Sebangau National Park (187.41 and 88.08 tons ha-1), Kutai National Park (139.91 and 65.76 tons ha-1) and Lore Lindu National Park (87.90 and 41.32 tons ha-1). This study also found that large deadwood with diameters of >7.5 cm contributes to more than 80% of the total deadwood carbon stock. Understanding the carbon stock stored in deadwood within national park areas is crucial for refining estimates of potential avoided greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the conservation of national park forests.

Abstract

East Kalimantan represents the lowland rainforest ecosystem with a vast number of macrofungi species in Indonesia. This study aimed to evaluate the diversity of macrofungi within the two different locations in East Kalimantan. The study was conducted in several phases, including planning, survey, preparation, sampling, and data analysis. Sampling was carried out systematically in 20 20 m plots. Collected samples were processed, photographed, and identified. Ecological indices, including the Shannon-Wiener diversity index, species evenness, and the Simpson dominance index, were calculated to provide a detailed analysis of the macrofungal community structure. This study found that location 1 recorded 24 species from 21 genera, while location 2 had 22 species from 20 genera. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index indicated moderate diversity at both sites, with values of 2.82 for location 1 and 2.65 for location 2. Daedaleopsis confragosa was the most frequent and dominant species in location 1, contributing 12.03% relative density, while Marasmiellus candidus dominated location 2 with 18.51% relative density. Species evenness was medium in both locations, and the dominance index was low, highlighting the ecological significance of these fungal species in their respective habitats. The results emphasize the importance of studying fungal ecology to support conservation and sustainable environmental management. The study revealed a wide variety of macrofungi that play vital roles in the tropical ecosystems of these two locations in East Kalimantan.
