The study on the Factors of Environmental Diversity Affecting the Amount of Carbon Sequestration in Trees around Paphayompittayakom School serves three (3) main purposes: 1. To survey and collect data on the variety of trees, temperature, and relative humidity in the air, and the amount of carbon dioxide around the trees. 2. To measure circumference length, height and calculate biomass, above-ground carbon storage, the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed, and the amount of oxygen released by trees. 3. To examine the relationships between temperature, relative humidity in the air, the amount of carbon dioxide around the trees, circumference length, height, biomass, above-ground carbon storage, the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed, and the amount of oxygen released by trees. This involves surveying trees along the Mae Sai Yan Nad Canal road in the Pa Phayom District of Phatthalung Province, covering a distance of 4 kilometers within a 5-meter radius from the road, totaling 219 trees. Carbon dioxide, temperature, and relative humidity in the air were measured, and tree biomass was calculated using allometric equations.
