definition: [NŽstor I. Gasparri] Above-ground biomass is a key parameter in the estimates of the carbon stock in forests and to know about their status of conservation. In this work, a multi-temporal analysis of satellite images is done in order to assess its use in estimating above-ground biomass in dry forests of the Parque Chaque–o region in Argentina. Biomass was estimated from field data and was correlated to spectral data... , "[Jerome Chave] The above-ground biomass (AGB) of tropical forests is a crucial variable for ecologists,biogeochemists, foresters and policymakers. Tree inventories are an efficient way of assessingforest carbon stocks and emissions to the atmosphere during deforestation...
