Abstract

Changes of vegetated land to built-up land will affect the above ground carbon (AGC) stocks in an area. These changes have an impact on climate change. This study aimed to estimate AGC stocks changes in Mijen Sub-District during 2017-2022. Mijen Sub-District is one of the suburban areas of Semarang City which has the main function as the lungs of the city. To determine the AGC stock, remote sensing data and GIS analysis are used.
