Abstract: Forest vegetation can fix carbondioxide and release oxygen, which has important role for air purification. Based on the forest inventory, forestry statistics date and net productivity, the quantity of forest carbon fixation and oxygen release were calculated. The values of forest carbon fixation and oxygen release were estimated by applying the method of carbon tax and market value. Results showed that the total value of forest ecosystem services of Boshan Forest was 9.4×107 yuan. The values of fix carbondioxide and release oxygen in Boshan Forest were in the following order: pine massoniana forest>the oak forest>the Chinese pine forest>the poplar forest>the shrub ecosystem>the hard broad forest> the pinus elliottii forest>the China fir forest>the metasequoia forest>the bamboo forest. The poplar forest supplied the maximum value per unit area followed by the China fir forest, and yet the pinus elliottii forest supplied the minimum value per unit area.
