Allometric equations for estimating the above-ground biomass in tropical lowland Dipterocarp forests

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 detail. In this research, allometric equations are presented based on the genera of commercial species and mixed species....
