Improved allometric models to estimate the aboveground biomass of tropical trees.
Terrestrial carbon stock mapping is important for the successful implementation of climate change mitigation policies. Its accuracy depends on the availability of reliable allometric models to infer oven-dry aboveground biomass of trees from census data. The degree of uncertainty associated with previously published pantropical aboveground biomass allometries is large. We analyzed a global data...
متن کاملEstimation of Aboveground Biomass Using Manual Stereo Viewing of Digital Aerial Photographs in Tropical Seasonal Forest
The objectives of this study are to: (1) evaluate accuracy of tree height measurements of manual stereo viewing on a computer display using digital aerial photographs compared with airborne LiDAR height measurements; and (2) develop an empirical model to estimate stand-level aboveground biomass with variables derived from manual stereo viewing on the computer display in a Cambodian tropical sea...

متن کاملEstimation of Tropical Forest Height and Aboveground Biomass from Dual-band InSAR measurements in Peruvian Amazon
In July 2009, Earthdata Inc. acquired Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data over a lager part of the Peruvian lowland Amazon and mountain forests (more than 5000 km 2 ). The project was designed to provide high spatial resolution imagery to the science community to estimate and map forest aboveground biomass and to assess the capability of the measurements for REDD baseline applications. GeoSAR c...
متن کاملPredicting Aboveground Biomass Increment of Tropical Forests from Litter-fall
Predicting Aboveground Biomass Increment (ABI) of forests is important in evaluating primary productivity, and hence aboveground C sequestration rate and C policy implementation. Although there are direct methods such as remote sensing to predict the ABI, it is important to develop ground-based indirect methods, particularly for tropical forests, due to their stratification, complex structure a...
