Allometry of mangrove horseshoe crab, Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda along Peninsular Malaysia coastal waters by Isa, Nor Syuhaida, Mohamed, Rozihan, B., Akbar John, Sobari, Mohd Akmal, Darmansuri, Joni Haryandi, Esa, Yuzine

“…A total of 158 samples of C. rotundicauda were collected randomly from Merlimau, Melaka and Pantai Balok, Pahang characterized by different environmental conditions in order to study the intraspecific variations using allometry relationship. Body weight for male C. rotundicauda was 88.02±21.71 g and female was 103.12±33.04 g in Merlimau while in Pantai Balok, the mean for body weight in male was 123.23±31.52 g and female was 177.05±70.98 g. …”

Shifts in tree allometry in a tropical dry forest: implications for above-ground biomass estimation by Gustavo Ramírez-Ramírez, Luis Ramírez y Avilés, Francisco Javier Solorio-Sánchez, Jorge Augusto Navarro-Alberto, Juan Manuel Dupuy-Rada

“… 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? …”
