Bark biomass as an energy source has a high economic value. Bark content variations and
production helps recognize the potential of this bioenergy source spatially before harvesting …

This research develops an allometric model for estimation of biomass based on the height
and DBH of trees in the Hyrcanian forests of Iran. An accurate allometric model reduces the …

Trees are one of the most important carbon reservoirs on the earth and carbon sequestration
into plant biomass is an easiest and economically most practical way for mitigating the CO2 …

Carbon storage in plant biomass is the simplest and most economically viable way to reduce
atmospheric carbon dioxide carbon dioxide concentration. The objective of this study was to …

Fire is one of the main causes of carbon emission from forest stands. Therefore, the present
study was conducted to investigate the amount of carbon emission caused by fire in the …

The aim of this study was to determine the optimal rotation age of even-aged forests with
respect to timber and non-timber values by developing the Faustmann model. We conducted …

Introduction: Increasing the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration is a major cause of
climate change that has led to degradation in natural ecosystems and incidence of various …

This study was carried out to estimate the branch and leaves (crown) biomass of Lebanon
oak (Quercus libani Oliv.) and gall oak (Q. infectoria Oliv.) trees at single and stands level in …

Increasing carbon storage in forests is the goal of sustainable management, in recent years,
it has been recognized as one of the important tools in mitigating the impact of climate …
