Biomass allometric models for Larix rupprechtii based on Kosak’s taper curve equations and nonlinear seemingly unrelated regression [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The diameter at breast height (DBH) is the most important independent variable in biomass allometry models based on metabolic scaling theory (MST) or geometric theory. However, the fixed position DBH can be misleading in its use of universal scaling laws

Allometric Models for Predicting Aboveground Biomass and Carbon Stock of Tropical Perennial C4 Grasses in Hawaii [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Biomass is a promising renewable energy option that provides a more environmentally sustainable alternative to fossil resources by reducing the net flux of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere.

Models and tables of the phytomass of dead branches in growing trees of Scots pine and Silver birch in the steppe zone [PDF]
Сибирский лесной журнал, 2022 Under conditions of a changing climate, the relevance of assessing the full carbon pool of all components of forest ecosystems increases, not only of the living aboveground and underground parts, but also of litter, large detritus, soils, etc.

Allometric models for improving aboveground biomass estimates in West African savanna ecosystems
Trees, Forests and People, 2021 West African Sudanian savanna ecosystems greatly contribute to local peoples’ livelihoods and climate change mitigation. Yet, the contribution of these ecosystems to carbon storage remains poorly documented due to the lack of accurate biomass predictive ...

Implications of allometric model selection for county-level biomass mapping
Carbon Balance and Management, 2017 Background Carbon accounting in forests remains a large area of uncertainty in the global carbon cycle. Forest aboveground biomass is therefore an attribute of great interest for the forest management community, but the accuracy of aboveground biomass ...
