Title: Biomass of singleleaf pinyon and Utah juniper. Forest service research paper

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5489351

Biomass determinations in singleleaf pinyon (Pinus monophylla) - Utah juniper (Juniperus osterosperma) stands in Nevada indicate that stem diameter and average crown diameter are the tree measurements most highly correlated with ovendry weights. The equations and tables developed provide a means for estimating the total aboveground biomass as well as the weights for the various size fractions by species. The tables can also be used to estimate the cordwood and slash resulting from fuelwood harvesting operations.
