Abstract
We estimated the biomass productivity and the storage potential of nitrogen, the major contributor of non-point source pollution, with four three-year-old four poplar clones in a riparian woody buffer established in the Anseong River in Anseong, Korea. Stem of Populus alba ${\times}$ P. glandulosa clone 72-31 and Populus deltoides ${\times}$ P. nigra clone Dorskamp showed the highest percentage of aboveground biomass components, followed by branch and leaf. Nitrogen content in aboveground biomass components of two poplar clones was the highest in leaf and the lowest in stem. Nitrogen content in leaf and branch of clone 72-31 was higher than that of clone Dorskamp, while it in stem was lower. Populus deltoides clone Ay48 showed the highest above-ground biomass productivity, which was estimated as $37.5ton\;ha^{-1}$ at age 3. However, clone 72-31 was the lowest in above-ground biomass productivity. Nitrogen storage potential in aboveground biomass of 3-year-old poplar clones was high in order of aboveground biomass. Clone Ay48 showed the highest nitrogen storage potential in aboveground biomass, which was estimated as $218.3kg\;ha^{-1}$ at age 3.
