Optimizing the airborne laser scanning estimation of basal area larger than mean (BALM): An indicator of cohort balance in forests

Airborne laser scanning (ALS) assisted basal area larger than mean (BALM) estimation measures the cohort balance in forests and provides adequate opportunities to describe forest structure. However, a problem still exists that how the plot size, sample size (number of trees), and ALS point density a...
