The Assessment of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Adsorption and Spatial Biomass Distribution Mapping in the Reservoir of Hinboun Hydropower Project

Geographical Information System (GIS) is an excellent tool to be employed with computer control system and play very significant role for database management, storing, capture, mapping and data analysis which includes vector and raster data. This study is mainly to focus on: (i) to study on the tree volumes, carbon storages and analyze the adsorption of carbon dioxide (CO2), (ii) to estimate the existing biomass within the reservoir and (iii) to create the spatial biomass distribution maps. Consequently, the distribution maps are described and indicated in low to high biomass density within the study area. Hence, this study has found that: there are 10,365.3 m3 of the total volume, 421.423 kg of total Carbone storage, 1,542.41 kg of total CO2 absorption and 36,346.48 tons of total Biomass within the study area.
