Shifts in tree allometry in a tropical dry forest: implications for above-ground biomass estimation

Background: Accurate estimations of aboveground biomass (AGB) based on allometric models are needed to implement climate-change mitigation strategies. However, allometry can change with tree size. Questions: Does allometry in a tropical dry forest change with tree size? Does combining different al...
