DOI: 10.5194/bg-16-847-2019
Abstract: Abstract. Tree allometric relationships are widely employed for estimating forest biomass and production and are basic building blocks of dynamic vegetation models. In tropical forests, allometric relationships are often modeled by fitting scale-invariant power functions… read more here.
