Description
Function to estimate individual tree aboveground biomass using Chave et al. (2005) equation for dry forests. Tree height is estimated from diameter using a Weibull equation with region-specific parameters from Feldpaush et al. (2011). The function adds columns to the dataset that contain the biomass estimates for all living trees. This function needs a dataset with the following columns: PlotViewID, PlotID, TreeID, CensusNo, Diameter (DBH1-DBH4), Wood density (WD) and Allometric RegionID.The function assumes that the diameter that should be used is DBH4, unless another DBH is selected. See ForestPlots.net documentation for more information.
Usage
1
AGBChv05DH(xdataset, dbh = "D4", height.data = NULL, param.type = "Best")
Arguments
xdataset
a dataset for estimating individual tree biomass
dbh
a diameter (in mm).
height.data
Object returned by param.merge. If NULL (default), then regional height-diameter equations are used.
param.type
Local height diameter to use. One of Best (defualt), BioRF,ClusterF ... NEED TO DECIDE WHICH OF THESE TO RETURN
