AGBch: Function to estimate AGB change between first and last census...

In GabrielaLopez/BiomasaFP: Tools for analysing data downloaded from ForestPlots.net

Description

This function estimates biomass change between the first and last census by time elapsed. AGB is estimated by providing a biomass equation from the ones included in the package. Results are displayed by PlotViewID.

Usage

AGBch(xdataset, AGBEquation, dbh = "D4")

Arguments

xdataset	a dataset with diameter (use mergefp)
AGBEquation	the AGB equation used to produce the summary
dbh	a diameter (in mm) to estimate biomass
