Old-growth mixed dipterocarp forests show variable losses and gains in aboveground biomass and standing carbon over forty years

Old-growth mixed dipterocarp forests show variable losses and gains in aboveground biomass and standing carbon over forty years

Background: No studies have documented long-term trends in aboveground biomass (AGB) for mixed-dipterocarp forests (MDF), the dominant rain forest type in tropical wet equatorial Asia. In our study, we sought to document such trends over forty years across three sites representing lowland to lower m...
