Description Usage Arguments Examples

Description

Calculates biomass from density and diameter, without height. Requires four parameters, following Chave (2005).

The parameters can be changed, but the formula cannot be. Returns a vector of biomass as long as vector of dbh submitted.

This is called by Chave.AGB in the standard calculation of biomass for CTFS R tables.
