Abstract

Abstract: Accurate biomass models are important tools for estimating biomass and carbon sequestration in forest plantations. Thirty Acacia mangium trees, aged 13 years, were destructively sampled to determine the distribution of aboveground biomass (AGB) in the main tree components. Six allometric models using diameter at breast height (DBH), total height (H) and crown diameter (CD) as independent variables were fitted using weighted nonlinear regression and evaluated through Monte Carlo cross-validation. Acacia mangium trees primarily accumulate biomass in the stem (51.2 - 58.0 %) and branches (24.6 - 31.5 %), and these proportions tend to remain stable across tree sizes. All tree-level variables showed positive correlations with AGB; however, the strongest correlations were observed with DBH and CD. The developed models displayed slightly better predictive accuracy compared to existing ones. These models will contribute to improving the carbon quantification of Acacia mangium forest plantations in the eastern plains of Colombia.
