TL;DR: This work analyzed a global database of directly harvested trees at 58 sites, spanning a wide range of climatic conditions and vegetation types, and found a pantropical model incorporating wood density, trunk diameter, and the variable E outperformed previously published models without height.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of above-ground biomass of large tropical trees with Terrestrial LiDAR

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to estimate AGB of large tropical trees by 3D tree modeling of TLS point clouds, which can account for individual tree biophysical structure more effectively than allometric models.
Journal ArticleDOI
The importance of crown dimensions to improve tropical tree biomass estimates
TL;DR: The analysis suggests that accounting for crown allometry would substantially improve the accuracy of tropical estimates of tree biomass and its distribution in primary and degraded forests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amazon palm biomass and allometry
Rosa C. Goodman,Oliver L. Phillips,Dennis Del Castillo Torres,Luis Freitas,Sebastián Tapia Cortese,Abel Monteagudo,Timothy R. Baker +6 more
TL;DR: It was found that stem height was the best predictor variable for arborescent palm biomass, but the relationship between stem height and biomass differed among species, and most species showed weak biomass–diameter relationships, but a significant relationship could be identified across all species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Closing a gap in tropical forest biomass estimation: taking crown mass variation into account in pantropical allometries

TL;DR: The authors showed that the proportion of crown to total tree aboveground biomass is highly variable among trees, ranging from 3 to 88% and reduced the range of plot-level error (in %) from [−23; 16] to [0; 10].
