Even though the area of mangrove forests is relatively large in of the world, the consequences of various anthropogenic cause various damages. Given their global significance as a large carbon sink, preventing mangrove loss would be an effective climate change adaptation and mitigation strategy. This research was conducted to analyze carbon stocks in mangrove forests resulting from the rehabilitation of former pond land in Lubuk Kertang Village, West Brandan District, Langkat, North Sumatra, Indonesia. The census method was applied in this study, to calculate the value of carbon stocks using an allometric equation with DBH > 5cm. The aboveground biomass was 15.54 Mg/ha. Soil sampling for organic carbon content by collecting a sub-sample 5 cm from the center of the core. The total value of the total carbon stock above and below the soil surface is 9.42 Mg/ha 1 and soil carbon is 685 MgC/ha 1 . ## Keywords - Mangrove - Carbon stock - Carbon sink - Environmental science - Forestry - Carbon sequestration - Soil carbon - Carbon fibers - Environmental protection - Total organic carbon - Agroforestry - Tree allometry - Blue carbon - Stock (firearms) - Geography - Biomass (ecology) - Climate change - Ecology - Carbon dioxide - Soil science - Soil water - Mathematics - Biomass partitioning - Biology - Algorithm - Composite number - Archaeology --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
