Carbon stock estimates (PgC) for geographic regions, carbon type and disturbance category are provided for (a) the inference population and (b) the target population. Wetland area represented by each group is provided in 106 ha. Means are presented with s.e.m. for the inference population. Means for disturbance category s.e.m. for all values are not presented for the target population data because they cannot be calculated for the wetland area not able to be sampled.
