  • Abstract
    At the age of post-Kyoto Protocol, international forestry carbon sequestration project not only has strongly achieved the form of harmoniously developing between economy and environment conservancy in developing countries, but also is promoting the relative research on theory and technology in Forestry Carbon Sequestration. And this paper has discussed that how to establish the Geo-Spatial Model of Evaluating for Forestry Carbon Sequestration Capacity, as well as the principle, method and the result of it´s integrating with GIS. In any case, this study mainly concentrates on how to find the optimistic trees and land blocks for forestation, and estimating the economic benefit and the invested risk of planting in the selected land block with the selected tree, so that the GIS software based on this model could offer some reasonable and scientific evidences for decision-making supporting in forestation, furthermore, in forestry carbon trade. An experiment with ArcObjects for the models has been given in the end. And as a result, we also analyses the result, as well as make a research conclusion.
