Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Enclosure aboveground dry weight of herbaceous and woody species was estimated at 1,84 ton/ha.
- Method / resource The non-destructive biomass method was rejected for inaccurate wood density and low model correlations.
- Method / resource Selected destructive-study total biomass models had coefficients of determination of 0,67 to 0,99.
- Method / resource Non-destructive woody-species models had coefficients of determination of 0,20 to 0,90.
