In order to assess the contribution to the overall carbon stock and generate carbon credits under REDD+, it is essential to have an accurate estimation of biomass of different forest components.

Allometric Equations For Ethiopian Acacia Species [PDF]
Abstract Background: Allometric equations are used to estimate biomass and carbon stock of forest. In Ethiopia, despite the presence of large flora diversity, only a few site-specific allometric equations are developed so far. This study was conducted in the Omo-Gibe woodland of south-western Ethiopia to develop an allometric equation to ...

Development and testing of allometric equations for estimating above-ground biomass of mixed-species environmental plantings [PDF]
To quantify the impact that planting indigenous trees and shrubs in mixed communities (environmental plantings) have on net sequestration of carbon and other environmental or commercial benefits, precise and non-biased estimates of biomass are required ...

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

Developing nondestructive species‐specific tree allometry with terrestrial laser scanning
Allometric equations predict organism attributes from simple measurements and underlie many global‐scale estimates, from plant productivity to ecosystem carbon stocks. In forests, destructive harvesting of trees in common groups (e.g.

NFYB Integrates Hormonal Signals into Tissue Allometry by Promoting Protein Biosynthesis
In the American cockroach, NFYB acts as a spatiotemporin that translates distinct hormonal cues into tissue‐specific allometry. Juvenile hormone activates NFYB in the early fat body, while 20‐hydroxyecdysone induces it in late wing pads. NFYB then promotes protein biosynthesis via core translational machinery, driving differential growth across the ...

Biomass estimation as a function of vertical forest structure and forest height: potential and limitations for radar remote sensing [PDF]
One common method to estimate biomass is measuring forest height and applying allometric equations to get forest biomass. Conditions like changing forest density or changing forest structure bias the allometric relations or biomass estimation fails ...
