About this document

Allometric Equation for Raphia laurentii by dnvnaomie2002 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document presents the development of an allometric equation for the palm species Raphia laurentii, which dominates the Central Congo Peatlands and is crucial for accurate aboveground biomass (AGB) estimates. The study involved destructively sampling 90 stipes of R. laurentii to relate AGB to measurable physical parameters, ultimately identifying total diameter of palm fronds as the best predictor. The findings aim to improve carbon stock estimates in peat swamp forests, addressing a significant gap in
