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

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 ...

Estimating urban above ground biomass with multi-scale LiDAR [PDF]

Carbon Balance and Management, 2018
Background Urban trees have long been valued for providing ecosystem services (mitigation of the “heat island” effect, suppression of air pollution, etc.); more recently the potential of urban forests to store significant above ground biomass (AGB) has ...

Mangrove Above‐Ground Biomass and Production Are Related to Forest Age at Low Isles, Great Barrier Reef [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Above‐ground biomass contributes a large proportion of mangrove carbon stock; however, spatio‐temporal dynamics of biomass are poorly understood in carbonate settings of the Southern Hemisphere.

Height-diameter allometry and above ground biomass in tropical montane forests: Insights from the Albertine Rift in Africa. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Tropical montane forests provide an important natural laboratory to test ecological theory. While it is well-known that some aspects of forest structure change with altitude, little is known on the effects of altitude on above ground biomass (AGB ...

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 ...

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

Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 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.

Organic Carbon, Nitrogen Accumulation and Nitrogen Leaching as Affected by Legume Crop Residues on Sandy Loam in the Eastern Baltic Region

Plants, 2023
Legumes have a wide range of positive effects on soil properties, including nitrogen and carbon storage, soil structure and the phytosanitary condition of crops.

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

PLoS One, 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.

Past decade above-ground biomass change comparisons from four multi-temporal global maps

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2023
Above-ground biomass (AGB) is considered an essential climate variable that underpins our knowledge and information about the role of forests in mitigating climate change.
