Aboveground Live Biomass (2008), Andrews Experimental Forest

The biomass raster was developed by equations in (Seidl, et al 2012). Lidar variables used to create the raster include 95th percentile height, bare earth elevation, and the standard deviation of height in a 35m moving window. Watershed Sciences, Inc. (WS) collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data from HJ Andrews and the Willamette National Forest (NF) on August 10th and 11th 2008. Total area for this AOI is 17,705 acres. The total area of delivered LiDAR including 100 m buffer is 19,493 acres.
