Estimating above-ground biomass in multi-stemmed mangrove trees along the arid coast of the Pilbara region, Western Australia

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 09/10/2017

Single and multi-stemmed trees of the mangroves Rhizophora stylosa and Avicennia marina were sampled from Port Hedland, Dampier and Exmouth Gulf in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, to determine allometric relationships for estimating above-ground biomass from stem diameter.

The stems of eleven Rhizophora stylosa and thirteen Avicennia marina trees were measured. The trees were then felled, divided into component parts and weighed. Weighed subsamples of each component part were also collected to determine dry weight.
