Tumbarumba Wet Eucalypt Stem Diameter, Height and Aboveground Woody Biomass Data

This data contains stem diameter, height measurement and above ground living biomass calculations for a Eucalyptus dominated woodland from 2015 - present. Diameter and height measurements for stems ≥10cm diameter at breast height were sampled within the core 1 ha plot within the Tumbarumba Wet Eucalypt site.

Purpose
This dataset records tree diameter and height data used to calculate above-ground biomass across vegetation types in Australia. This data is important for mapping and monitoring changes in plant growth, carbon storage and terrestrial energy fluxes.

Statement
Tree survey:<br> Diameter at breast height and height of all trees in the Tumbarumba Wet Eucalypt site, Core 1 ha was determined along 10 transects of 100 m length and 10 m width.<br> Biomass calculation:<br> Aboveground biomass were estimated using both Eucalypt and Acacia specific allometric equations<br> Allometric equations for Eucalypts were sourced from Raison et al (unpublished data) in Keith et al., 2000.<br> Acacia specific equations were sourced from Paul et al 2013.<br> The aboveground biomass for dead stems was calculated using the following equation: biomass (kg) * height (m) / (-0.0061*height(m) ^2 + 1.018*height (m)) (pers.comm William Woodgate).
