Allometric equations adjusted for Quercus petraea, and Pinus sylvestris in Castille and León (Spain)

Usage

eq_biomass_cudjoe_2024(species, component = "AGB", return_rmse = FALSE)

Arguments

species

A character string specifying the scientific name of the tree species. It can be a column name if all the species are included in this model. See Details for available species.

component

A character string specifying the tree component for biomass calculation (e.g., "stem", "branches"). See Details.

return_rmse

A logical value. If TRUE, the function returns the root mean squared error (RMSE) of the selected model instead of the biomass value.

Value

A S7 list of parameters

Details

There are three species options in this model:

  • Quercus petraea

  • Pinus sylvestris

  • Mixed: stands with Quercus petraea and Pinus sylvestris

The tree components include some AGB components:

  • leaves: only for P. sylvestris

  • stem: for all species

  • medium branches and small brances: for all species

  • thick branches: for all species

  • AGB: total biomass, results of summing the previous components
