MODIS Based Estimation of Forest Aboveground Biomass in China. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Accurate estimation of forest biomass C stock is essential to understand carbon cycles. However, current estimates of Chinese forest biomass are mostly based on inventory-based timber volumes and empirical conversion factors at the provincial scale ...

Field experiments underestimate aboveground biomass response to drought [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2022 AbstractResearchers use both experiments and observations to study the impacts of climate change on ecosystems, but results from these contrasting approaches have not been systematically compared for droughts. Using a meta-analysis and accounting for potential confounding factors, we demonstrate that aboveground biomass responded only about half as ...

Estimating aboveground biomass of oil palm: Allometric equations for estimating frond biomass [PDF]
Forest Ecology and Management, 2013 Abstract Allometric equations were developed to estimate the biomass of oil palm frond with nontree-lethal methods. The study was conducted in oil palm plantations belonging to the Oil Palm Research Center of the Institut National de Recherches Agricoles du Benin (INRAB) and to neighboring smallholders oil palm plantations.

Estimating the Aboveground Biomass of Bornean Forest [PDF]
Biotropica, 2014 AbstractWe apply a process‐based model, called 3‐PG (physiological principles for predicting growth), to estimate aboveground biomass for the primary forests of Borneo. Using publicly available soil and climate data, and parameterized with physiological traits of Bornean forest, the modeled aboveground biomass and basal area showed statistically ...

Grassland carbon sequestration and emissions following cultivation in a mixed crop rotation [PDF]
, 2012 Grasslands are potential carbon sinks to reduce unprecedented increase in atmospheric CO2. Effect of age (1 to 4-yr-old) and management (slurry, grazing multispecies mixture) of a grass phase mixed crop rotation on carbon sequestration and emissions upon
