Non‐destructive allometric estimates of above‐ground and below‐ground biomass of high‐mountain vegetation in the Andes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Vegetation Science, 2018
AbstractAimStudies that monitor high‐mountain vegetation, such as paramo grasslands in the Andes, lack non‐destructive biomass estimation methods. We aimed to develop and apply allometric models for above‐ground, below‐ground and total biomass of paramo plants.LocationThe paramo of southern Colombia between 1°09′N and 077°50′W, at 3,400 and 3,700 m a.s.

Testing the generality of below-ground biomass allometry across plant functional types [PDF]

open access: yesForest Ecology and Management, 2019
Accurate quantification of below-ground biomass (BGB) of woody vegetation is critical to understanding ecosystem function and potential for climate change mitigation from sequestration of biomass carbon. We compiled 2054 measurements of planted and natural individual tree and shrub biomass from across different regions of Australia (arid shrublands to ...

Carbon content of below–ground biomass of young Scots pines in Latvia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Forest ecosystems play crucial role in global carbon cycling, therefore, increasing afforestation of agricultural land in Europe has been recognized as important contribution of carbon sequestration. In carbon reporting systems, root carbon content (CC) default value has been set to 50%.

Latitudinal Characteristics of Below- and Above-ground Biomass of Typha: a Modelling Approach [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2005
The latitudinal differences in the growth characteristics of Typha are largely unknown, although a number of studies have pointed out the effects of climate on the growth and productivity of Typha. Therefore, a dynamic growth model was developed for Typha to examine the effects of latitudinal changes in temperature and radiation on partitioning of the ...

Above- and Below-ground Biomass Relationships Across 1534 Forested Communities [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2007
Prior work has shown that above- and below-ground dry biomass across individual plants scale in a near isometric manner across phyletically and ecologically diverse species. Allometric theory predicts that a similar isometric scaling relationship should hold true across diverse forest-types, regardless of vegetational composition.To test this ...
