Masalah perubahan iklim dan pemanasan global telah menjadi perhatian global utama, terutama didorong oleh meningkatnya konsentrasi gas rumah kaca (GRK). Ekosistem hutan memainkan peran penting dalam mitigasi perubahan iklim melalui kapasitasnya untuk menyimpan karbon. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperkirakan biomassa di atas permukaan tanah dan stok karbon di berbagai tipe tutupan lahan di Taman Nasional Gunung Ciremai (TNGC), Jawa Barat, Indonesia. Metode pengambilan sampel acak berstrata digunakan, dan data penginderaan jauh (citra Landsat 8) beserta pengukuran lapangan digunakan untuk mengklasifikasikan tutupan lahan dan menghitung stok karbon. Penelitian ini mengidentifikasi tiga tipe tutupan lahan utama: hutan campuran, hutan pinus, dan semak belukar. Biomassa dan penyimpanan karbon diperkirakan menggunakan persamaan alometrik yang telah ditetapkan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hutan campuran memiliki stok karbon tertinggi (769.293 ton/ha), diikuti oleh hutan pinus (506,73 ton/ha), sedangkan semak belukar memiliki stok karbon terendah (34,48 ton/ha). Berdasarkan klasifikasi stok karbon, hutan campuran dan hutan pinus masuk dalam kategori Stok Karbon Tinggi (HK3), sedangkan hutan semak masuk dalam kategori Semak (B).

The issue of climate change and global warming has become a major global concern, primarily driven by increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations. Forest ecosystems play a crucial role in mitigating climate change through their capacity to store carbon. This study aims to estimate aboveground biomass and carbon stocks across different land cover types in the Mount Ciremai National Park (TNGC), West Java, Indonesia. A stratified random sampling method was employed, and remote sensing data (Landsat 8 imagery) along with field measurements were used to classify land cover and calculate carbon stocks. The study identified three primary land cover types: mixed forest, pine forest, and shrubland. Biomass and carbon storage were estimated using established allometric equations. The results showed that mixed forest had the highest carbon stock (769,293 ton/ha), followed by pine forest (506,73 ton/ha), while shrubland had the lowest (34,48 ton/ha). Based on the carbon stock classification, the mixed forest and pine forest fall into the High Carbon Stock (HK3) category, while shrublands fall into the Bush (B) category.
