The main objective of this study was to quantify the biomass, C and nutrients stocks in the forest floor, understory, downed dead wood (DDW) and mineral soil of even-aged maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) stands from three contrasting regions of Portugal. Assessing the specific contribution of DDW to the C and nutrients stocks and how C concentration in the plant material differs from 0.50, the reference value used in many practical applications, were also objectives of this research. Biomass content of forest floor was determined by a quadrat method. Sampling units of 1 m2 were used for the understory. The line intersection method was adopted for sampling DDW and the mineral soil was sampled at three depths. Concentrations of C and nutrients were obtained by chemical analysis of samples from soil and milled plant material. Biomass and C in the trees were obtained using published equations. Total C stocks ranged between 100.6 Mg ha\u20131 and 308.6 Mg ha\u20131. Mineral soil shared up to 70-74% of global stored C, being the main cause of the global C stock differences among regions. Phosphorous and potassium were at low to very low levels in the mineral soil and plant material. The contribution of DDW to the C and nutrients pools was negligible. The percentage of C in the plant material ranged between 52% and 54%.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5424\/fs\/2010193-9096","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,2,6]],"date-time":"2012-02-06T10:35:17Z","timestamp":1328524517000},"page":"434-448","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Carbon and Nutrients Stocks in Even-Aged Maritime Pine Stands from Portugal"],"prefix":"10.5424","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Lu\u00eds","family":"Nunes","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Patr\u00edcio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Tom\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Margarida","family":"Tom\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"2373","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,10,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","first-page":"47","article-title":"O m\u00e9todo de \u00c9gner-Riehm na determina\u00e7\u00e3o do f\u00f3sforo e pot\u00e1ssio assimil\u00e1veis em solos de Portugal.","volume":"51","author":"Balbino","year":"1968","journal-title":"Rev Agron"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1062962"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5962\/bhl.title.94267","volume-title":"Carbon storage and accumulation in United States forest ecosystems.
