Data package from 'Pantropical variability in tree crown allometry' Global Ecology and Biogeography 2021 [PDF]

, 2021
Aim: Tree crowns determine light interception, carbon and water exchange. Thus, understanding the factors causing tree crown allometry to vary at the tree and stand level matters greatly for the development of future vegetation modelling and for the ...

Integrating climate, soil and stand structure into allometric models: An approach of site-effects on tree allometry in Atlantic Forest

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Tree allometric models are generally developed at local scales and thus potentially biased when used for different locations and at broader spatial scales.

Allometric relationships between stem diameter, height and crown area of associated trees of cocoa agroforests of Ghana

Scientific Reports, 2023
Allometric models which are used to describe the structure of trees in agroforestry systems are usually extrapolated from models developed for trees in forest ecosystems.

Changes in Root–Shoot Allometric Relations in Alpine Norway Spruce Trees After Strip Cutting

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Silvicultural interventions such as strip cuttings can change the resource availability of the edge trees. This may alter tree allometry, as light regime, water, and nutrient availability can change at the forest edge.

Determination of the Biomass Allometry Equation and Carbon Calculation of Avicennia marina shrub in the Nayband Bay [PDF]

بوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2021
The study of biomass and carbon in mangrove forests is often performed by allometry methods. The allometry models in Mangrove trees are influenced by factors such as species, ecological conditions, and tree age.

Allometry and trees architecture

Revista da Biologia, 2018
O sucesso de uma planta depende de sua capacidade de maximizar o ganho energético e a eficiência reprodutiva sem comprometer sua estabilidade estrutural. Este jogo entre resistência estrutural, balanço energético e capacidade reprodutiva tem sido um grande desafio para as plantas desde a saída destas do meio aquático, e agrava-se com o aumento do porte

Light-related variation in sapling architecture of three shade-tolerant tree species of the Mexican rain forest [PDF]

, 2008
The crown architecture of three shade-tolerant tree species (two subcanopy and one mid-canopy) was analyzed in relation to the light regime of the forest understorey.

Aboveground Biomass Models in the Combretum-Terminalia Woodlands of Ethiopia: Testing Species and Site Variation Effects

Land, 2022
The Combretum-Terminalia woodlands and wooded grasslands (CTW) are widely distributed in East Africa. While these landscapes may have the potential to act as key global carbon sinks, relatively little is known about their carbon storage capacity. Here we

Allometric scaling and allocation patterns: Implications for predicting productivity across plant communities

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
As the application of allometry continues to expand, the variability in the allometry exponent has generated a great deal of debate in forest ecology. Some studies have reported counterintuitive values of the exponent, but the sources of such values have

Adaptation and plasticity in aboveground allometry variation of four pine species along environmental gradients

Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Plant species aboveground allometry can be viewed as a functional trait that reflects the evolutionary trade‐off between above‐ and belowground resources. In forest trees, allometry is related to productivity and resilience in different environments, and
