The CO₂ stocks in roadside trees in Bilaspur, India, were estimated using a systematic sampling method on 30 sample plots. The sampling plots covered a total area of 3 ha. The region housed 438 trees of 37 species and 17 families, with an accumulated biomass of 101.44 t, 48.18 t of carbon and 176.64 t of CO₂. Delonix regia had the largest amounts of species-specific biomass and CO₂ stocks, followed by Tamarindus indica, Ficus religiosa, Albizia lebbeck and Ficus benghalensis. Azadirachta indica, Peltophorum pterocarpum, Samanea saman and Senna siamea had the highest numbers and relative abundances in roadside plantations. The 10 tree species that sequestered more than 80% of Bilaspur’s CO₂ were, in order of highest to lowest sequestration, Delonix regia, Samanea saman, Tamarindus indica, Azadirachta indica, Ficus religiosa, Peltophorum pterocarpum, Albizia lebbeck, Terminalia catappa, Ficus benghalensis and Terminalia arjuna. These tree species are therefore recommended for roadside plantations to sequester large amounts of CO₂ from the city and contribute to offsetting warming and mitigating the impact of climate change.

使用系统采样方法在30个样地上估算了印度Bilaspur的路边树木中的CO ₂存量。采样区总面积为3公顷。该地区共有438棵树木，有37种和17个科，积累的生物量为101.44 t，碳48.18 t和CO ₂ 176.64 t 。Delonix regia的物种特异性生物量和CO ₂储量最大，其次是罗望子，Ficus religiosa，Albizia lebbeck和Bencus Ficus。印za（Azadirachta indica），檀香（Peltophorum pterocarpum），萨曼（Samanea saman）和Senna siamea在路边人工林中的数量和相对丰度最高。固着Bilaspur的CO ₂超过80％的10种树种，按固着程度从高到低的顺序依次为：Delonix regia，Samanea saman，Tamarindus indica，Azadirachta indica，Ficus religiosa，Peltophorum pterocarpum，Albizia lebbeck，Terminalia catappa，Ficus becus和榄仁。因此，建议将这些树种用于路边种植，以隔离大量的CO ₂ 来抵消城市变暖和缓解气候变化的影响。
