A universal approach to estimate biomass and carbon stock in tropical forests using generic allometric models [PDF]
Ecological Applications, 2012 Allometric equations allow aboveground tree biomass and carbon stock to be estimated from tree size. The allometric scaling theory suggests the existence of a universal power‐law relationship between tree biomass and tree diameter with a fixed scaling exponent close to 8/3.

Allometric models to estimate biomass organic carbon stock in forest vegetation
Journal of Forestry Research, 2008A study was conducted in the forest area of Chittagong (South) Forest Division, Chittagong, Bangladesh for developing allometric models to estimate biomass organic carbon stock in the forest vegetation. Allometric models were tested separately for trees (divided into two DBH classes), shrubs, herbs and grasses. Model using basal area alone was found to

Abstract An accurate characterization of tree carbon (TC), forest floor carbon (FFC) and soil organic carbon (SOC) in tropical forest plantations is important to estimate their contribution to global carbon stocks. This information, however, is poor and fragmented.

Forest Ecology and Management, 2012
Forest ecosystems are the largest terrestrial carbon sink on earth and their management has been recognized as a relatively cost-effective strategy for offsetting greenhouse gas emissions. Forest carbon stocks in the U.S. are estimated using data from the USDA Forest Service, Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program.

National‐scale estimates of forest root biomass carbon stocks and associated carbon fluxes in Canada
Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2013AbstractCanada's forests play an important role in the global carbon cycle through carbon (C) storage and C exchange with the atmosphere. While estimates of aboveground biomass have been improving, little is known about belowground C storage in root biomass.

Error propagation in stock-difference and gain–loss estimates of a forest biomass carbon balance
European Journal of Forest Research, 2014According to the United Nations International Panel on Climate Change good practice guidance, an annual forest biomass carbon balance (AFCB) can be estimated by either the stock-difference (SD) or the gain–loss (GL) method. An AFCB should be accompanied by an analysis and estimation of uncertainty (EU).

Estimation of biomass, carbon stocks and soil sequestration of Gowatr mangrove forests, Gulf of Oman
2020The mangrove forest ecosystem is known to possess a variety of ecosystem services, including high rates of carbon sequestration, storage and mitigating climate change through reduced deforestation. This study was carried out in the mangrove forests of Gowatr Bay, Gulf of Oman during 2017-18 to quantify biomass and carbon stocks of all components of ...

Abstract In this study, we analyzed the above-ground biomass data for 631 trees with a diameter ⩾10 cm from different biogeographical regions in Colombia. The aims of this research were (1) to evaluate the accuracy of the most commonly employed pantropical allometric models for the estimation of above-ground biomass of natural forests in different ...

Allometric regression models are one of the common methods of carbon stock estimation based on growing stock data conversion to estimates of above ground biomass (AGB). Therefore, allometric model selection is important functional aspect that has considerable influence on accuracy of biomass estimation.
