Above-ground biomass and structure of 260 African tropical forests [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
We report above-ground biomass (AGB), basal area, stem density and wood mass density estimates from 260 sample plots (mean size: 1.2 ha) in intact closed-canopy tropical forests across 12 African countries. Mean AGB is 395.7 Mg dry mass ha −1 (95% CI: 14.3), substantially higher than ...

Above- and Belowground Biomass Allocation in Shrub Biomes across the Northeast Tibetan Plateau.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Biomass partitioning has been explored across various biomes. However, the strategies of allocation in plants still remain contentious. This study investigated allocation patterns of above- and belowground biomass at the community level, using biomass ...

High Throughput Determination of Plant Height, Ground Cover, and Above-Ground Biomass in Wheat with LiDAR

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Crop improvement efforts are targeting increased above-ground biomass and radiation-use efficiency as drivers for greater yield. Early ground cover and canopy height contribute to biomass production, but manual measurements of these traits, and in ...

Above-Ground Biomass and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Using Lidar Survey [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences, 2023
Space images from the Sentinel-2 satellite are a wide database for studying various attributes of large forest areas. One of these indicators is the aboveground biomass, which is related not only to the state and development of forests, but also to the ...

Are inventory based and remotely sensed above-ground biomass estimates consistent? [PDF]

, 2013
Carbon emissions resulting from deforestation and forest degradation are poorly known at local, national and global scales. In part, this lack of knowledge results from uncertain above-ground biomass estimates.

Above ground biomass estimation of mangroves located in Negombo - Muthurajawela wetland in Sri Lanka using ALOS PALSAR Images

Tropical Agricultural Research, 2016
In Sri Lanka, mangrove forests are scattered along the north-western, north eastern, Jaffna Peninsula and eastern coastal belt. The total estimated extent of mangroves in the country is about 87 km2.

Tree-Level Above-Ground Biomass Equations for Pinus sylvestris L. in Mongolia

Mongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2020
Allometric equations have been used as a main tool to quantify forest above-ground biomass. Therefore, the development of species-specific allometric equations is essential to accurately estimate forest biomass.

ReUse: REgressive Unet for Carbon Storage and Above-Ground Biomass Estimation

Journal of Imaging, 2022
The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has recently established the Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+) program, which requires countries to report their carbon emissions and sink estimates through national greenhouse gas inventories (NGHGI).

Above-ground biomass and productivity in a rain forest of eastern South America [PDF]

, 2008
: The dynamics of tropical forest woody plants was studied at the Nouragues Field Station, central French Guiana. Stem density, basal area, above-ground biomass and above-ground net primary productivity, including the contribution of litterfall, were ...

Above- and below-ground competition in high and low irradiance: tree seedling responses to a competing liana Byttneria grandifolia [PDF]

, 2008
: In tropical forests, trees compete not only with other trees, but also with lianas, which may limit tree growth and regeneration. Liana effects may depend on the availability of above- and below-ground resources and differ between tree species.
