MONTES DE OCA-CANO, Eduardo et al. Allometric equations for estimating the above-ground biomass and carbon in Trichospermum mexicanum (DC.) Baill. Colomb. for. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.2, pp.89-98. ISSN 0120-0739.  https://doi.org/10.14483/2256201x.15836.

The aim of the present study was to adjust linear and non-linear equations in order to estimate the carbon component of leaves, branches and entire trees. The results indicate that at the individual level, the total component shows the best adjustment statistics, while major variation is detected in the branches and in the trunk. In addition, an analysis of the biomass percentages in each component indicates that the trunk accounts for 57% of the biomass, 9% for leaves and 34%for branches.
