ABSTRACT
Biocarbon storage is the sinking of atmospheric carbon in plants. It helps to reduce the alarming level of increase in greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere. The concentration of atmospheric CO2 was 270 ppm before the industrial revolution period, and now, it has crossed 500 ppm. This is one of the main reasons for global warming and climate change. Currently, there are lots of measures taken for mitigation of this global threat, and one such measure is biocarbon storage. This chapter aims to provide the biocarbon-storage potential of tea plantation in Gudalur located in Nilgiris district of Tamil Nadu state in India.
