Abstract

Forests are important carbon sinks throughout the world, and therefore, the key to reducing the impact of climate change. Allometric models are essential for measuring biomass and carbon storage in forest ecosystems. Expected allometry exists for tropical trees, but species-specific models and locations are more accurate. The more reasonable methods for estimating tree biomass and carbon storage in forests, are very critical given, concerns to be global climate change. This study aimed to clarify the model formation in estimating aboveground biomass. The stages of this research include several steps, namely in the initial stages, gathering articles, and journals, then making a resume and classifying the independent variables used in allometric models. The most common independent variables are diameter at breast height (DBH) and height data.
