DOI: 10.1007/s10457-018-0213-y
Abstract: Vitellaria paradoxa is one of the most economically important trees in West Africa. Although being a key component of most sub-Sahara agroforestry systems, little information and argument exist regarding its biomass and carbon potential. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11056-020-09832-z
Abstract: Biomass-based carbon (C) stock estimation is the most accurate method for estimating the C stock in forestry. To accurately estimate the Manchurian ash (Fraxinus mandshurica Rupr.) C stock, the provenance effect on C traits was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.02.022
Abstract: Abstract The unavailability of site-specific allometric equations to estimate forest biomass has promoted the use of general equations in tropical moist forests which may result to errors in the estimates. The aim of this study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/forestry/cpaa019
Abstract: Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) is used to estimate tree, stand and forest characteristics across large geographic areas. In most analyses, several independent LiDAR-based allometric equations are built to predict various forest attributes. When each… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13021-020-00143-6
Abstract: Background Biomass maps are valuable tools for estimating forest carbon and forest planning. Individual-tree biomass estimates made using allometric equations are the foundation for these maps, yet the potentially-high uncertainty and bias associated with individual-tree… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f9060295
Abstract: It is strongly debated whether bamboo forest ecosystems are a carbon sink or a carbon source because of insufficient knowledge regarding carbon loss via CO2 emissions from these forests. The surface area (S) of bamboo… read more here.
