With humanity facing an unprecedented climate crisis, the conservation of tropical forests has never been so important–their vast terrestrial carbon stocks can be turned into …
Accurate measurement and mapping of biomass is a critical component of carbon stock quantification, climate change impact assessment, suitability and location of bio-energy …

Tropical forests hold large stores of carbon, yet uncertainty remains regarding their quantitative contribution to the global carbon cycle. One approach to quantifying carbon …
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 …
Aim Large trees (dbh≥ 70 cm) store large amounts of biomass. Several studies suggest that large trees may be vulnerable to changing climate, potentially leading to declining forest …

Remotely sensed data have become the primary source for biomass estimation. A summary of previous research on remote sensing‐based biomass estimation approaches and a …
Allometric equations can be used to estimate the biomass and carbon stock of forests. However, so far the equations for Dipterocarp forests have not been developed in sufficient …
