Biomass distribution, allocation and growth efficiency in European beech trees of different ages in pure even-aged stands in northeast France

Central European Forestry Journal, 2022
Determination of the biomass and biomass increment of trees in managed stands is a pre-requisite for estimating the carbon stocks and fluxes, in order to adapt the forests to new climatic requirements, which impose to maximize the CO2 retained by forests.

Making the US national forest inventory spatially contiguous and temporally consistent

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Signatories to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) are required to annually report economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions and removals, including the forest sector.

Estimating Forest Carbon Stocks in Danyang Using Kriging Methods for Aboveground Biomass [PDF]

Journal of the Korean Association of Geographic Information Studies, 2012
The aim of this study is to estimate aboveground biomass carbon stocks using ordinary kriging(OK) which is the most commonly used type of kriging and regression kriging(RK) that combines a regression of the auxiliary variables with simple kriging. The analysis results shows that the forest carbon stock in Danyang is estimated at 3,459,902 tonC with OK ...

Tree height and tropical forest biomass estimation [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2013
Tropical forests account for approximately half of above-ground carbon stored in global vegetation. However, uncertainties in tropical forest carbon stocks remain high because it is costly and laborious to quantify standing carbon stocks.

The estimation of biomass and carbon stocks in mangrove forest ecosystem of Karawang Regency, West Java

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2022
Abstract Mangrove forest has a role in reducing carbon levels through the absorption from the atmosphere and its storage in several compartments such as plants, litter, and soil organic matter. It is important to estimate biomass and carbon stocks in mangrove forests, because mangroves are able to store three to five times more carbon ...

Allometric Equations for Estimating Biomass and Carbon Stocks in the Temperate Forests of North-Western Mexico [PDF]

Forests, 2017
This paper presents new equations for estimating above-ground biomass (AGB) and biomass components of seventeen forest species in the temperate forests of northwestern Mexico. A data set corresponding to 1336 destructively sampled oak and pine trees was used to fit the models.

Estimating Carbon Stock in Biomass and Soil of Young Eco-Forest in Urban City, Thailand

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
One method of mitigating the effect of climate change is to increase carbon sequestration areas in eco-forest plantations that are important for carbon cycling. The Miyawaki technique of afforestation has been recommended for eco-forest plantations in urban city settings because of its suitability for rapid growth of thick trees, carbon sequestration ...

Allometric relationships for volume and biomass for stone pine (Pinus pinea L.) in Italian coastal stands

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2013
Tree biomass plays a key role in sustainable forest management and in determining forest carbon stocks. Accurate estimates based on species-specific empirical data are necessary for regional and national inventories and forest carbon management.

Allometric relationships of stand level carbon stocks to basal area, tree height and wood density of nine tree species in Bangladesh

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Forest carbon stocks can be estimated using some easily measureable stand variables, such as basal area, mean or maximum tree height and wood density. Estimation of stand level carbon stocks per unit area of forests or woodlands is of great importance ...

Carbon Stocking in the Natural Forests – The Case of Malaysia

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2015
Forested land in the world is about 28% of the global land area, accounting for 80% of the terrestrial carbon stored as biomass and soil organic carbon. Human activities, namely fossil fuel combustion and deforestation resulted in anthropogenic emissions
