o:6914 EVALUATING OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES: CARBON STORAGE IN THE FOREST ECOSYSTEMS OF BELGRADE en The amount of carbon stored in Belgrade’s urban forests is detailed as follows: 1,143,686 t/ha in above-ground biomass, 185,094 t/ha in underground biomass, 57,184 t/ha in dead wood biomass, 391,816 t/ha in forest floor, and 2,537,519 t/ha in soil, totaling 4,315,299 t/ha (Ratknić T et al., 2022). Satellite imagery was employed for measurements, facilitating automation and daily change monitoring. Wood has varying prints depending on its use, such as paper production, building materials, furniture, fuel, or biomass (pellets). It is necessary to develop a circular economy-based certification concept. Projected net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 underscore the need for incentivizing private forest involvement in carbon sequestration through storage or afforestation. This calls for a new management system ensuring the permanent fixation of carbon within the forest. ecosystem services, bound carbon, urban forests, City of Belgrade 1552100 978-86-6269-134-7 1552102 https://iep.bg.ac.rs/images/stories/izdanja/Tematski%20Zbornici/Zbornik%20radova%202024%20lq.pdf 91552100 COBISS.SR-ID 137427721 2025-01-15T15:14:34.084Z 44 yes 46 Tatjana Dimitrijević 0000-0002-6333-7079 46 Mihailo Ratknić 46 Miroljub Aksić 46 Gordana Šekularac 46 Vojkan Dimitrijević application/pdf 368196 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:6914 no yes 1 70 92000004 2024 71A07 INTERNATIONAL scientific conference Sustainable agriculture and rural development 361 370 Institute of Agricultural Economics, Belgrade 2024
