TL;DR: Allometric equations of the same authors for wet forests were valid at Zadie, even though the climatic zone does not correspond, and more data on tree biomass are needed in central Africa to explore the natural range of variability in tree biomass and identify the factors that influence variations among sites.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large dataset of 6 million trees in more than 180,000 field plots was used to map the floristic and functional composition of central African forests and predict their vulnerability to climate change.

TL;DR: Results suggested that to improve regeneration of timber species, planting in open forest habitats with seedlings coming from tree nursery should be more efficient.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used allometric equations to measure the carbon stocks of Lesio-louna moist forest and found that the average carbon stock across the 22 plots studied was 168.601 t C ha -1 for above-ground biomass (AGB), or 81% and 39.55t C ha −1 for below-ground (BGB) or 19%.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the carbon stocks of above-and below-ground biomass in the secondary and gallery forest of Lesio-louna (Republic of Congo).
