Inventory-based estimates of forest biomass carbon stocks in China: A comparison of three methods

Forest Ecology and Management, 2010
Abstract Several studies have reported different estimates for forest biomass carbon (C) stocks in China. The discrepancy among these estimates may be largely attributed to the methods used. In this study, we used three methods [mean biomass density method (MBM), mean ratio method (MRM), and continuous biomass expansion factor (BEF) method ...

Methods to Estimate Above-Ground Biomass and Carbon Stock in Natural Forests - A Review

Journal of Ecosystem & Ecography, 2012
Carbon exists as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and constitutes about 0.04% of the atmosphere. In the recent past, it has gained a lot of attention as a greenhouse gas, as it has potential to influence the climate pattern of the world. Anthropogenic activities like industrialisation, deforestation, forest degradation and burning of fossil fuel, has ...

Allometric Models for Estimating Aboveground Biomass, Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks in Temperate Avicennia marina Forests

Wetlands, 2016
Estuarine ecosystems are changing rapidly in response to anthropogenic impacts. Mangrove expansion in New Zealand is mainly attributed to favourable climatic conditions and increased sedimentation due to land use change. This expansion is associated with large scale shifts in ecosystem structure and function, with significant potential impacts on ...

Satellite-based estimation of biomass carbon stocks for northeast China's forests between 1982 and 1999

Forest Ecology and Management, 2007
Northeast China maintains large areas of primary forest resource and has been experiencing the largest increase in temperature over the past several decades in the country. Therefore, studying its forest biomass carbon (C) stock and the change is important to the sustainable use of forest resources and understanding of the forest C budget in China.

Aboveground biomass estimation and carbon stock assessment along a topographical gradient in the forests of Manipur, Northeast India

Arabian Journal of Geosciences, 2020
Forests act as a source and sink of carbon. Forest biomass has been extensively used for environmental modelling and carbon stock estimation. In recent decades, significant land use changes occurred in the Manipur valley, India, impacting biomass production and carbon sequestration potentials.

Comparing the stock-change and gain–loss approaches for estimating forest carbon emissions for the aboveground biomass pool

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2018
Two approaches to greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories are common, namely the stock-change approach and the gain–loss approach. With the stock-change approach, mean annual emissions are estimated as the ratio of the difference in stock estimates at two points in time and the number of intervening years.

Estimating Above Ground Biomass and Carbon Stock of Ambiki Remnant Natural Forest, Guangua District, Northwestern Ethiopia

2018
Reducing CO2 emissions and carbon (C) sequestration have paramount importance to reverse climate change-induced challenges. Natural forests have great potential to sequester more C; hence, participatory forest management (PFM) has been practiced in Ambiki Remnant Natural forest (ARNF).

Allometric Models for Estimating Stem Volume, Biomass and Carbon Stocks in Sal Forests of Western Himalayas

Indian Forester
Allometric equations provide a quantitative framework that aids in forest management, carbon accounting, and ecological research. Nevertheless, few studies have developed allometric equations for this species in this part of India, which differs ecologically from the other parts of India where most allometric studies have been done.
