Relationship between above-ground biomass allocation and stand density index in Populus x euramericana stands

Allometric scaling relationship between above- and below-ground biomass within and across five woody seedlings

Allometric biomass allocation theory predicts that leaf biomass (M L ) scaled isometrically with stem (M S ) and root (M R ) biomass, and thus above-ground biomass (leaf and stem) (M A ) and root (M R ) scaled nearly isometrically with below-ground biomass (root) for tree seedlings across a wide diversity of taxa. Furthermore, prior studies also imply that scaling constant should vary with spec...

Estimating Stand Volume and Above-Ground Biomass of Urban Forests Using LiDAR

Assessing forest stand conditions in urban and peri-urban areas is essential to support ecosystem service planning and management, as most of the ecosystem services provided are a consequence of forest stand characteristics. However, collecting data for assessing forest stand conditions is time consuming and labor intensive. A plausible approach for addressing this issue is to establish a relat...

معرفی یک گونه جدید Melampsora روی Populus x euramericana در ایران NEW RECORD OF THE GENUS Melampsora ON Populus x euramericana FROM IRAN

اخیراً نمونه‌‌ای آلوده به زنگ روی Populus x euramericana جمع‌آوری شده از مازندران بررسی گردید که ویژگی‌هایی متفاوت از گونه‌های قبلا گزارش شده در کشور داشت. این نمونه دارای مراحل اوردینیوم و تلیوم بود. اوردینیوم‌ها که به دلیل جمع‌آوری آخر فصل غالبا توسط گونه‌ای هیفومیست هیپرپارازیت آلوده شده بودند به شکل سورهای کوچک، گرد و پراکنده با ظاهری پودری در سطح زیرین برگ‌های آلوده تشکیل ...

Remote Sensing of Above-Ground Biomass

Accurate measurement and mapping of biomass is a critical component of carbon stock quantification, climate change impact assessment, suitability and location of bio-energy processing plants, assessing fuel for forest fires, and assessing merchandisable timber. While above-ground biomass includes both live and dead plant material, most of the recent research effort on biomass estimation has foc...
