“…Where appropriate, normality was tested with a Shapiro-Wilk test. It is common practice to use allometric biomass equations as a cost effective and efficient method of relating an easily measurable parameter to that of a less obtainable dependent factor such as dry tree weight, or total bark weight (Parresol 1999;Zianis et al 2005;Picard et al 2012;Morhart et al 2013;Roxburgh et al 2015;Cifuentes Jara et al 2015). The biomass models used within this study follow the form given in Eq.…”

“…The sample trees are representative of all social classes (Kraft 1884) ranging from dominant and co-dominant individuals to dominated and suppressed individuals. The dominated and suppressed trees were additionally sampled to augment the allometric curve at the lower end, as is common practice to cover the entire spread of tree sizes on the plot (Cifuentes Jara et al 2015). Up to the point of sampling no management operations such as thinning or pruning were applied to the sampled trees.…”

“…Tree aboveground biomass (AGB) and carbon storage are directly quantified by application of generalized allometric equations. As a result, a great bias of AGB is reported related to the application of previously published pan-tropical allometric equations (Chave et al 2014;Henry et al 2011;Jara et al 2014). In Africa, the availability of fewer allometric equations is reported compared to other tropical continents (Ngomanda et al 2014).…”

“…Réjou-Méchain et al (2017) provide a Monte Carlo algorithm in R (R Core Team, 2016) to account for the error in the parameters of the model of Chave et al (2014). Specific guidelines for documenting and reporting tree allometric equations are provided in Cifuentes Jara et al (2015).…”
