Carbon sequestration in plantation forests can be used to offset greenhouse gas emissions to meet New Zealand's international climate change obligations in the Kyoto Protocol. Although Pinus radiata grows quickly, species with higher wood density, such as Eucalyptus fastigata, are likely to be more suitable for plantations aimed at carbon sequestration. The aim of this study was to provide robust tools and models for predicting carbon sequestration for Eucalyptus fastigata.
