File S1 - Estimates of Forest Biomass Carbon Storage in Liaoning Province of Northeast China: A Review and Assessment

Supporting tables. Table S1. Parameters for calculating forest live-biomass density (Mg ha−1) via the continuous biomass expansion factor method [CBM]. Biomass density is expressed as a function of forest growing stock (v, m3 ha−1), BEF = a+b/v, where b (Mg ha−1) and a (Mg m−3) are constants for a forest group. Data are from 1073 field plots. n is sample size, and r2 is the coefficient of determination. Table S2. Parameters to calculate forest biomass density (Mg m−3) by mean ratio method [MRM]. Data are from 1073 field plots. Table S3. Parameters to calculate forest biomass density by the mean biomass density method [MBM] (BD, Mg ha−1). Data are from 1073 field plots in table 1. (DOCX)
