Allometric equations for four valuable tropical tree species (2006, background): “…of singlespecies biomass equations from the tropics include Whitesell et al. (1988), Stewart et al. (1992; 16 species), Dudley and Fownes (1992; eight species), Fuwape et al. (2001; two species), Ong et al. (2004), Padrón and Navarro (2004), Swamy et al. (2004), and Saint-André et al. (2005).”
Empirical estimate of the reliability of the use of the Point-Centred Quarter Method (PCQM) : solutions to ambiguous field situations and description of the PCQM+ protocol (2006, background): “The fact that the basal area is less affected by the tree type (SST or MST) is also reassuring for the establishment of allometric relationships based on D130 such as biomass (Baskerville, 1972; Suzuki and Tagawa, 1983; Woodroffe, 1985; Putz and Chan, 1986; Clough and Scott, 1989; Amarasinghe and Ba”
Below-ground root yield and distribution in natural and replanted mangrove forests at Gazi bay, Kenya (2008, background): “…2005; Zianis and Mencuccini, 2003; Komiyama et al., 2002; Clough, 1992), fewer studies have considered below-ground biomass (but see Comley and McGuinness, 2005; Ong et al., 2004; Alongi and Dixon, 2000; Komiyama et al., 2000; Saintilan, 1997a,b), because of the logistical difficulties involved.”
Mangrove root: adaptations and ecological importance (2016, background): “To overcome these adverse circumstances, some mangrove species develops above-ground, functional, modified, spreading root systems such as stilt roots/prop roots and buttress roots instead of consistent below-ground tap root system (Ong et al. 2004).”
Biomass and aboveground net primary production in a subtropical mangrove stand of Kandelia obovata (S., L.) Yong at Manko Wetland, Okinawa, Japan (2009, background): “In most studies, D (DBH) was taken as the only independent variable in the allometric equation (e.g. Nakasuga 1979; Putz and Chan 1986; Day et al. 1987; Clough and Scott 1989; Amarasinghe and Balasubrananiam 1992; Mackey 1993; Clough et al. 1997; Ong et al. 2004).”
Above- and below-ground biomass, and allometry, of four common northern Australian mangroves (2005, background): “Relationships for individual species may also vary among sites (Clough et al. 1997; Eamus et al. 2000), although Ong et al. (2004) reported ‘almost uncanny’ similarity for relationships for Rhizophora apiculata at different sites.”
