Nondestructive estimates of above‐ground biomass using terrestrial laser scanning [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 Summary Allometric equations are currently used to estimate above‐ground biomass (AGB) based on the indirect relationship with tree parameters. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) can measure the canopy structure in 3D with high detail.

Estimation of Above-Ground Biomass of Wetlands
, 2011 Despite global importance of wetlands, estimations of their production and biomass have received little attention (Campbell et al., 2000). This chapter concentrates on analysis of the composition and above-ground biomass of floodplain grasslands and fen vegetation in the Northern forest zone.

Latitudinal Characteristics of Below- and Above-ground Biomass of Typha: a Modelling Approach [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2005 The latitudinal differences in the growth characteristics of Typha are largely unknown, although a number of studies have pointed out the effects of climate on the growth and productivity of Typha. Therefore, a dynamic growth model was developed for Typha to examine the effects of latitudinal changes in temperature and radiation on partitioning of the ...

Edge effects on components of diversity and above‐ground biomass in a tropical rainforest [PDF]
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2017 Abstract Edge effects are among the most significant consequences of forest fragmentation. Therefore, understanding the impacts of edge creation on biodiversity is crucial for forest management and biological conservation. In this study, we used trait‐based and phylogenetic approaches to examine the effects of fragmentation on components of ...

Joint Soil and Above-Ground Biomass Characterization Using Radars
IGARSS 2024 - 2024 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing SymposiumSoil moisture sensing through biomass or vegetation canopy has challenged researchers, even those who use SAR sensors with penetration capabilities. This is mainly due to the imposed extra time and phase offsets on Radio Frequency (RF) signals as they travel through the canopy.

Modelling Below- and Above-ground Biomass for Non-woody and Woody Plants [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2004 Intraspecific relationships between below- and above-ground biomass (MB and MA, respectively) have been studied extensively to evaluate environmental effects on growth and development at the level of the individual plant. However, no current theoretical model for this relationship exists for broad interspecific trends.

Above‐Ground Biomass Estimation with High Spatial Resolution Satellite Images
, 2017 Assessment and monitoring of forest biomass are frequently done with allometric functions per species for inventory plots. The estimation per area unit is carried out with an extrapolation method. In this chapter, a review of the recent methods to estimate forest above‐ground biomass (AGB) using remote sensing data is presented.
