Contrasted allometries between stem diameter, crown area, and tree height in five tropical biogeographic areas
Across five biogeographic areas, DBH-CA allometry was characterized by inter-site homogeneity and intra-site heterogeneity, whereas the reverse was observed for DBH-H allometry.

Revisiting a universal airborne light detection and ranging approach for tropical forest carbon map**: scaling-up from tree to stand to landscape
Airborne laser scanning provides continuous coverage map** of forest canopy height and thereby is a powerful tool to scale-up above-ground biomass (AGB) estimates from stand to landscape. A critical first st...

Crown allometries are less responsive than stem allometry to tree size and habitat variations in an Indian monsoon forest
While theoretical allometric models postulate universal scaling exponents, empirical relationships between tree dimensions show marked variability that reflects changes in the biomass allocation pattern. As gr...

Tree shape plasticity in relation to crown exposure
Trees outside closed forest stands differ in the relation between stem diameter, height and crown volume from trees that grew with neighbours close by. Whether this plasticity in tree shape varies between spec...

A Component-Based Framework for Simulating Agricultural Production and Externalities
Although existing simulation tools can be used to study the impact of agricultural management on production activities in specific environments, they suffer from several limitations. They are largely specializ...
