• New models for estimating the carbon sink capacity of Spanish softwood species (2011, background): “Branch and foliage biomass are more dependent than bole biomass on tree competition and stand density, hence they present greater variability (Cole and Ewel, 2006; Návar, 2009).”
• Establishment of native tropical timber trees in monoculture and mixed-species plantations: Small-scale effects on tree performance and insect herbivory (2011, background): “When established in plantations, C. odorata seedlings seldom escape attack by the mahogany shootborer Hypsipyla grandella Zeller (e.g. Cole and Ewel, 2006; Menalled et al., 1998).”
• Developing Two Additive Biomass Equations for Three Coniferous Plantation Species in Northeast China (2016, methodology): “For these biomass models published in the literature, tree diameter at breast height (D) is the most commonly used and reliable predictor for total, sub-total, and components biomass [11,19–23].”
• A Three-Step Proportional Weighting System of Nonlinear Biomass Equations (2015, result): “Our results basically matched published results (e.g., Ketterings et al. 2001, Cole and Ewel 2006, Wang 2006, António et al. 2007).”
• Species-specific and general allometric equations for estimating tree biomass components of subtropical forests in southern China (2016, methodology): “Biotic (tree species and stand age) and environmental (climate and soil condition) factors may all contribute to the variation in branch, leaf and root biomass among tree species, such as light and soil nutrient and water availability (Peichl and Arain 2007), herbivory and interspecific or intraspec”
