Standardised effect sizes and 95% CIs of the impact of forest management intensity (ForMIX index) on different carbon stocks for 139 plots.

Caption

Forest management affects carbon above and below ground differently. Across 139 forest plots, greater management intensity was associated with lower total and aboveground carbon stocks, but higher belowground carbon stocks in both 2011 and 2017.
