Vegetation in and Benishangul Gumuz Region is part of CombretumTerminalia Broadleaved Deciduous Woodland which extends from the foot hills of western escarpment of western Ethiopia to the cost of Senegal.1 This vegetation in Ethiopia was first described by,2 as the Broad-leaved deciduous woodland vegetation which was later described as Combretum-Terminalia Broadleaved Deciduous Woodland Ecosystem.3,4 This ecosystem is dominated by the woody plant species such as Lannea fruticosa, Flueggea virosa, Grewia mollis, Pterocarpus lucens, Combretum collinum, Terminalia laxiflora and Stereospermum kunthianum; grasses such as Hyparrhenia rufa and Pennisetum thunbergii. The amount of carbon stored in forests and different landscape components fluctuates according to spatial and temporal factors such as forest type, size, age, stand structure and associated vegetation and ecological zonation.5 Forest management activities and associated silvicultural treatments are key determinants of forest carbon dynamics. The study area belongs to high fire frequency zone, which occurs across sub Saharan Africa from Senegal to the western Ethiopian escarpment, and also penetrates into the highlands along the deep river valleys.6 The influence of elevated temperatures at lower altitudes and rainfall is known to have direct impact on the intensity and frequency of fire in the area. The plants in this vegetation have, over time, developed adaptive mechanisms and traits that allow them either to survive fire, to germinate after the heat shock or to regenerate after a fire episode. The selective pressure of fire on the plant communities has produced plant species, which are fire resistant, or pyrophytes.7 The incidence of annual fire for a long period of time in the area shows many adaptations of plants both to burning and its impact on soil properties.6,8 The rationale for this study was to collect data and information, is to serve as a statistically valid estimation of forest biomass and carbon stock within each habitat types in the given area site. The assessment was conducted from 22nd September to 22nd 0ctober, 2017.
