Abstract

Tree Level 1. FBA = Functional Branch Analysis The FBA model provides a simple way to reconstruct a specific tree based on fractal (self repeating) assumption. This model is can be used to estimate biomass by nondestructive sampling. It can be applied to above ground as well as below ground biomass. For more information please contact : Betha Lusiana (b.lusiana@cgiar.org) 2. SLIM= Simple Light Interception Model The SLIM model computes canopy closure, an index of long term light level, at any height above the ground within a forest canopy.
