Root Biomass Allocation in the World's Upland Forests
Oecologia, 1997Because the world's forests play a major role in regulating nutrient and carbon cycles, there is much interest in estimating their biomass. Estimates of aboveground biomass based on well-established methods are relatively abundant; estimates of root biomass based on standard methods are much less common.

ABSTRACTIn a mangrove forest in southern Thailand, the root biomass was estimated for the Sonneratia zone, the Sonneratia-Bruguiera ecotone, the Bruguiera zone and the Rhizophora zone. A 0.2 m (width) × 15.5 m (length) × 1.0 m (depth) trench was dug between two trees of Rhizophora apiculata and the roots in the trench harvested, rinsed, sorted by ...

Biomass and Production of Fine Roots in Japanese Forests
Journal of Forest Research, 2007To better understand the control of fine-root dynamics in Japanese forests, we reviewed studies conducted in Japan on fine-root biomass and production. Most of the data on fine-root biomass were obtained for conifer plantations in limited regions; the average fine-root biomass of dominant trees ranged from ∼50 g m−2 for Pinus species (n = 3) to ∼600 g ...

BIOMASS UTILIZATION AS SUSTAINABLE ENERGETIC ROOT
SGEM International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference� EXPO Proceedings, 2023The effect of climate change on current life is becoming more visible daily. Our capacity to be resilient to these changes is an act of responsibility for the future. Several directions could serve this purpose. The present study aims to determine the current state of the art in unconventional energy sources.

Monitoring biomass in root culture systems
Biotechnology & Bioengineering, 1999This paper presents a technique for accurate estimation of growth in root culture systems. Biomass correlations, were used to estimate fresh weight time course data in shake flasks and reactors based on a model of liquid nutrient uptake and osmolality, to account for changing specific water content of roots.

ROOT BIOMASS AND PRODUCTIVITY IN A GRAZING ECOSYSTEM: THE SERENGETI
Ecology, 1998Does grazing by large wild mammals, an intense form of aboveground herbivory, influence belowground productivity? The vast majority of literature data concentrate on short-term pot studies and indicate that clipping consistently retards root growth.
