# Eucalyptus camaldulensis stem (wood + bark) biomass from D

Stem biomass equation for Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Thailand, from Ounban et al. 2016. 94 trees, DBH 0.5–19.8 cm. Listed on Tree Allometrics, a free library of tree allometric equations, each quoted from the source that published it.

## Equation

As printed in Ounban et al. 2016 (Table 6):

> Ws = 0.092(D)2.429

Cite: https://treeallometry.org/equations/ounban-2016-euca-stem-d/#equation

In this library's units, ready to compute (stem biomass in kg):

```
Stem biomass = 0.092 * D^2.429
```

Inputs: D = Diameter at breast height (1.3 m) (cm).
The source's own form: 0.092 * D^2.429, with D in cm; output in kg.

A missing fit statistic is one the source doesn't state, or that we haven't recorded; it is never estimated. Outside the stated DBH range or region, the equation is an extrapolation.

## The facts, in the source's words

**Equation** (Table 6):

> Ws = 0.092(D)2.429

Cite: https://treeallometry.org/equations/ounban-2016-euca-stem-d/#equation

**Trees measured** (Methods, Compilation of biomass allometric equations):

> 13 datasets with a total of 94 trees were chosen for E. camaldulensis

Cite: https://treeallometry.org/equations/ounban-2016-euca-stem-d/#quote-fit-n-trees

**Smallest DBH** (Methods, Compilation of biomass allometric equations):

> The ranges in the diameters and heights of trees in the dataset were 4.4–41.2 cm and 5.5–31.0 m for T. grandis, and 0.5–19.8 and 1.7–26.0 m for E. camaldulensis

**method** (Methods, Reconstruction of biomass allometric equations):

> Linear regressions of untransformed data were used in the present study because log transformed data introduced a systematic bias

**Our note:** General (multi-site) equation fitted on pooled data compiled from published Thai plantation studies (theses, proceedings, reports), not on new felled trees; validated by the authors on independent harvests. D in cm, H in m, output kg dry weight per tree. AGB is the sum of stem, branches and leaves. Component symbol in the paper: Ws. The paper labels Wb as bark in its tables but as branches in the text, so no branch or bark model is entered.

## Checks this equation passes

On every build, the library's form and the source's own form (in its units) must both give these values within 1%.

| Inputs | Expected | We get | From |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| D = 8 | 14.4 | 14.4 | Computed from the printed form: computed from the published form |
| D = 15 | 66.1 | 66.1 | Computed from the printed form: computed from the published form |
