Biomass and Volume Models Based on Stump Diameter for Assessing Degradation of Miombo Woodlands in Tanzania

International Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Models to estimate forest degradation in terms of removed volume and biomass from the extraction of wood fuel and logging using stump diameter (SD) are lacking. The common method of estimating removals is through estimating diameter at breast height (D) by applying equations relating measured D and SD.
