Tiivistelmä
The lack of guidance on tree measurements applying a non-destructive approach in tropical forest ecosystems motivated the drafting of this paper. The paper guides step by step on how to conduct tree measurements to generate data for biomass and volume modelling. How basic wood densities and carbon content can be determined in the laboratory is also addressed. Guidance and references are provided to assist developing species specific models, generic models, as well as to quantifying forest biomass and carbon stocks.
