The study of Carbon storage of some trees in Thung Khai Botanic Garden, Trang has the objectives 1) to study soil quality that affects the amount of carbon storage of each type of trees in the Thung Khai Botanical Garden, Trang Province, includes Cratoxylum formosum, Syzygium claviflorum, Elaeocarpus robustus, Stereospermum fimbriatum, Alstonia scholaris, Eugenia grandis, Cotylelobium lanceolatum, Cinnamomum iners, Careya sphaerica and Bhesa robusta 2) to study the air quality that affects the amount of carbon storage of each type of trees in Thung Khai Botanical Garden, Trang Province, including Cratoxylum formosum, Syzygium claviflorum, Elaeocarpus robustus, Stereospermum fimbriatum, Alstonia scholaris, Eugenia grandis, Cotylelobium lanceolatum, Cinnamomum iners, Careya sphaerica and Bhesa robusta 3) to study the amount of carbon storage of each type of trees in Thung Khai Botanical Garden, Trang Province, including Cratoxylum formosum, Syzygium claviflorum, Elaeocarpus robustus, Stereospermum fimbriatum, Alstonia scholaris, Eugenia grandis, Cotylelobium lanceolatum, Cinnamomum iners, Careya sphaerica and Bhesa robusta by studying the growth of 10 prominent tree species and the quality of the soil in the area of all 10 prominent tree species. From the study of soil quality and the amount of carbon storage of each type of trees was found that soil quality, air quality and growth affected the amount of carbon storage of the 10 prominent tree species, including Cratoxylum formosum, Syzygium claviflorum, Elaeocarpus robustus, Stereospermum fimbriatum, Alstonia scholaris, Eugenia grandis, Cotylelobium lanceolatum, Cinnamomum iners, Careya sphaerica and Bhesa robusta in Thung Khai Botanic Garden, Trang. The Alstonia scholaris area had higher temperature values and elements in the soil content than other trees areas. There is less light intensity in the air, resulting in more growth for greater height and circumference values. The Alstonia scholaris are thus able to store the most carbon in all biomass and greenhouse gases.
