A dynamic growth model (CO2FIX) has been used for estimating the Carbon Sequestration Potential of Kafal (Myrica esculenta), an indigenous multipurpose tree used for timber, fuel wood, fiber and in addition to its medicinal value. The present study has been carried out in the campus of . College of Horticulture, ., Bharsar, Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand. The altitude of the location is ranging from longitude ’:’E, latitude ’:’N and 2000 m MSL altitude. The temperature and rainfall of this hilly area ranged from to and more than 10000 mm respectively. It is capable of thriving on snow and heavy rainfall condition. CO2FIX was parameterized for a simulation of 100 years respectively. | Carbon sequestration potential of Kafal Myrica esculenta An indigenous multipurpose and medicinal tree species in high hills of Western Himalaya
