“…Dendrochronological studies revealed mean radial increments of 1.27 and 1.59 mm/year, according to two chronologies from western Poland (Cedro & Nowak, 2015). In Europe, biomass of Q. rubra is assessed using allometric models and biomass expansion factors developed for Q. robur (Forrester et al, 2017; Teobaldelli, Somogyi, Migliavacca, & Usoltsev, 2009), with the exception of young trees, where biomass may be estimated from root collar diameter (Annighöfer et al, 2016; Dyderski & Jagodziński, 2018a; Jagodziński, Dyderski, et al, 2018). In the United States, models for biomass and volume calculations were provided by Gower, Reich, and Son (1993) and Martin, Kloeppel, Schaefer, Kimbler, and McNulty (1998).…”
