Recent advances in terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) technology have enabled the automatic
capture of three‐dimensional vegetation structure at high resolution, but the scalability of …

The increasing level of atmospheric carbon dioxide and its effects on our climate system has
become a global environment issue. The forest ecosystem is essential for the stability of …

The present communication deals with the carbon dynamics in the Himalaya hotspot region.
The Himalaya, a mountain range shared by Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan and Myanmar, is …

Scientific studies about the role of urban green spaces (UGSs) in biodiversity conservation
and climate change mitigation are limited in develo** countries. Therefore, the aim of this …

Mangroves are well-recognized for their very high carbon sequestration potential. However,
studies on their role in global carbon cycling and climate change are hindered due to lack of …

Quantifying above ground biomass (AGB) and its spatial distribution can significantly
contribute to monitor carbon stocks as well as the carbon storage dynamics in forests. For …

Dry Afromontane forests form the largest part of the existing natural vegetation in Ethiopia.
Nevertheless, models for quantifying aboveground tree biomass (AGB) of these forests are …

Biomass measurements are central to understanding and monitoring carbon stocks in the
forests. They also assists in assessing the growing stock of a species and biomass energy …

Mangrove ecosystems sequester and store large amounts of carbon in both biomass and
soil. In this study, species diversity, the above and below-ground biomass as well as carbon …

Biomass of trees may be predicted either directly applying allometric models or indirectly
from volume and biomass expansion factors (BEFs). For the Dry Afromontane forests, the …
