Mangrove ecosystems are coastal ecosystems that can store carbon three times higher than all other forests on earth. Current conditions show a decrease in mangrove forests and damage to mangrove ecosystem conditions that impact reducing mangrove carbon sequestration. Data relating to the potential of sustainable mangrove biomass is currently lacking, so research is needed. The purpose of this study was to determine changes in the amount of mangrove biomass at permanent stations temporally. This research was conducted at 10 sample points in the Benoa Bay area using a stratified purposive sampling method with a quadrant transect measuring 10 meters x 10 meters. Data were collected by measuring DBH on each mangrove stand within the transect. Data analysis was conducted using the common allometric equation by including the wood-specific gravity per species. In general, there was an increase in the average biomass in each plot with an average of 1.315 tons/ha at six months different. This shows that the larger the diameter of the stand, the greater the biomass produced.
