| dc.description.abstract | Estimation of biomass and carbon storage potential is very important for forestspreservation. In generally estimation used destructive method or allometric equations method. Estimation destructive manner requires time, cost and human resources, while estimating the allometric equation fixated on certain types of plants. It is necessary to obtain the best allometric equation which can be applied to various forest standing tree, silviculture system, topography, and rainfall. This study aimed to estimate the potential of biomass and carbon stocks using allometric equations.The best selected allometric equations to estimate biomass and carbon storage potential in stand of Acacia mangium and Pinus merkusii using Bootstrap resampling simulation. The relative values of the bias that approachedto allometric equations which W = 0.199 x D2.148 for A. mangium and W = 0.177 x D2.0501 for P. merkusiiwill be declared as the best allometric equation. Based on the analysis results obtained allometric equations W = 0.066 x D2.59 is a best allometric equations to estimate biomass and carbon storage potential in stand A. mangium while for P. merkusii is allometric equation LogW = -0.686 + 2.26 logD. | en |
