The Titicaca National Reserve Park reed-beds are considered as lake-wetlands which can take in great amounts of co2 from the atmosphere, thus contributing to lessen the effects of climatic changes. To survey the environmental service rendered through this system the following aims were set up: Identify main flora species. Measure the yield of green and dry matters. Estímate carbon contents stored in reed-plant components, and estímate the capture of carbon dioxide in reed-beds. To identify major flora species and to acknowledge the production of green and dry matters the "square parcel harvest and manual divide as of weight" method was used, for carbon contents in vegetable structure the "Walkley and Black" and the Heat Power methods were used; and to estímate the capture of carbon dioxide the "Carbon to Carbon Dioxide Conversion Factor" was used. In reed-beds the shoot species (totora= schoenoplectus tatora), (a kind of shoot or flax) (Nesset Meyer Kunth), is the most frequent and abundant, hence, it dominates flora formation. Green and dry reed-bed grossoutput were of 131.93 and 27.37 tons per Ha, respectively. The totora component which contains the greatest carbon conversionfraction is the airfloral-stalk, followed by the rhizome-root, and finally the submerged floral stalk. The average carbon content in reed-beds through the Walkley and Black and heat power methods were of 12.67 and 11. 97 carbon-tons per Ha respectively; while the totora component containing more carbon is the rhizome-root, followed by the air-floral-stalk, and the submerged-floral-stalk at end. The average capture of carbon dioxide in reed-beds by the Walkley and Black and caloric-power methods were of 46.47 and 43.89 C02-tons per Ha respectively. Conversely, the total capture of carbon dioxide in RNT reed-beds by way of methods Walkley and Black and caloric-power were of537 394 co2 tons and 507 481 co2 tons respectively.
