In this library's units, ready to compute (kg)
Stem biomass = 0.154 * D^2D- Diameter at breast height (1.3 m), cm
Stem with bark (commercial volume, up to a top diameter of 7 cm); fitted jointly with the branch equations by SUR to keep components additive. Stand type is not stated per species in the paper. Branch equations for this species are not added.
