Impacts Of Deforestation And Land Use/Land Cover Change On Carbon Stock And Dynamics In The Jomoro District, Ghana

This study quantifies carbon stock loss in Jomoro District, Ghana, after deforestation and land use change, showing significant losses across all land uses compared to primary forest.

Stand Age and Climate Change Effects on Carbon Increments and Stock Dynamics

The paper simulates carbon stock and increment dynamics in forests of different ages under climate change scenarios, finding greater age-related differences than climate scenario differences.

An allometric study of the contribution of prostrate stems to belowground development of juvenile Fagus crenata

This study uses allometric scaling to analyze the morphological development of Fagus crenata saplings, showing increased aboveground biomass relative to surface area and biomass, with prostrate stems playing a key role in belowground growth.

Improving quantitative structure models of trees inspired by pipe and metabolic scaling theory

The paper introduces new tree parameters for quantitative structure models (QSMs) and improves volume prediction by comparing against existing models and allometric theory.
