The study was conducted to investigate the differences in carbon storage of Quercus mongolica stands with respect to latitude and altitude in Korea. Study sites were located in Mt. Joongwang, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do (altitude 300m), Mt. Baekwoon, Gwangyang-si, Jeollanam-do (altitude 800m), and Mt. Halla, Jeju-do (altitued1,000m). Total carbon storage and annual carbon storage of Q. mongolica stands were 85-210 ton C/ha and 7.2-10.6 tonC/ha, respectively. Lower latitude (NE) stands of Q. mongolica showed more carbon storage and annual carbon storage than higher latitude stands.
