Estimates of forest vegetation carbon storage in subtropical China played an important role in researching climate dynamics and its mechanism. Carbon storage reflecting the effect of biomass and volume was developed for major planted forests (Pinus massoniana, Cunninghamia lanceolata) by means of the fifth FID (1994-1998) and assessing carbon density in three provinces (Hubei, Hunan, Anhui). Results showed that carbon storage and carbon density of Pinus massoniana varied at the range of 11.46Tg-27.18Tg and 12.96Mg/ha-14.68Mg/ha, respectively. The carbon storage and carbon density of Cunninghamia lanceolata varied from 4.40Tg to 39.70Tg and 13.28Mg/ha to 16.31Mg/ha, respectively. The distribution of carbon storage and carbon density of different forest types closely related with biomass and volume. This study indicated not only with estimation carbon storage and carbon density of many major planted in subtropical China but also with a method for forest vegetation carbon storage in spatial scales and regional scales.
