Estimating forest above‐ground biomass (AGB), or carbon (AGC), in tropical forests has
become a major concern for scientists and stakeholders. However, AGB assessment …

Reliable above‐ground biomass (AGB) estimates are required for studies of carbon fluxes
and stocks. However, there is a huge lack of knowledge concerning the precision of AGB …

The above-ground biomass (AGB) of tropical forests is a crucial variable for ecologists,
biogeochemists, foresters and policymakers. Tree inventories are an efficient way of …

Allometric equations allow aboveground tree biomass and carbon stock to be estimated
from tree size. The allometric scaling theory suggests the existence of a universal power‐law …

A standardized rapid inventory method providing information on both tree species diversity
and aboveground carbon stocks in tropical forests will be an important tool for evaluating …

Tropical forests hold large stores of carbon, yet uncertainty remains regarding their
quantitative contribution to the global carbon cycle. One approach to quantifying carbon …

Allometric regression models are widely used to estimate tropical forest biomass, but
balancing model accuracy with efficiency of implementation remains a major challenge. In …

The estimation and monitoring of the huge amount of carbon contained in tropical forests,
and specifically in the above-ground biomass (AGB) of trees, is needed for the successful …

Aboveground tropical tree biomass and carbon storage estimates commonly ignore tree
height (H). We estimate the effect of incorporating H on tropics-wide forest biomass …

In response to the growing interest in estimating carbon stocks in forests, available
allometric equations have been compiled for sub-Saharan Africa. Tree, sprout and stand …
