Sentinel-2-based AGB estimation using CART with the Sun et al. (1980) diameter-based allometric reference achieved the closest agreement with forest management plan data at the management-unit scale in Pinus brutia stands.
On 2026-08-22, a peer-reviewed study reported testing how three different allometric reference datasets affect Sentinel-2-based aboveground biomass mapping in Pinus brutia. Using 112 field plots and CART as primary model with Random Forest as robustness check, authors mapped biomass over 13,687 ha and compared totals to forest management plan data.
