description | Allometric equations are an important tool for accurate estimation of aboveground biomass of trees and their components. This document presents additive equations for estimating aboveground biomass in Pinus cembroides Zucc trees. In October 2017, a total of 21 trees of different diameter classes (5 cm to 40 cm) were felled and sectioned into three structural components: stem, branches and twigs with leaves to obtain their biomass. Two systems of non-linear equations were developed, in which the additivity was guaranteed by establishing the total aboveground biomass (Bt) as the sum of the biomass estimates of each component of the tree. The system that integrated the diameter at breast height and the total height of the tree as predictor variables explained more than 92% of the variation observed in the biomass data of the components and 98% of variability of the Bt. The average proportion of biomass in the stem, branches and twigs with leaves comprised 43.2%, 41.2% and 15.5% of the tree Bt, respectively. The equations generated in this study will contribute to improve the precision in biomass estimation and carbon inventories in P. cembroides forests. |

Las ecuaciones alométricas son una herramienta importante para la estimación precisa de la biomasa aérea de los árboles y de sus componentes. En este documento se presentan ecuaciones de aditividad para estimar la distribución de la biomasa aérea total en árboles de Pinus cembroides Zucc. En octubre de 2017, un total de 21 árboles de distintas clases diamétricas (5 cm a 40 cm) fueron derribados y seccionados en tres componentes estructurales: fuste, ramas y ramillas con hojas, para obtener su biomasa. Se formularon dos sistemas de ecuaciones no lineales, en el que la aditividad se garantizó al establecer a la biomasa aérea total como la suma de las estimaciones de la biomasa de cada componente del árbol. Los sistemas de ecuaciones fueron ajustados simultáneamente con el Método Generalizado de Momentos (GMM, por sus siglas en inglés). El sistema que integró al diámetro normal y la altura total del árbol como variables predictoras explicó más del 92% de la variación observada en los datos de biomasa de los componentes y 98% de variabilidad de la biomasa aérea total. La proporción promedio de biomasa en el fuste, ramas y ramillas con hojas comprendió 43.2%, 41.2% y 15.5% de la biomasa aérea total del árbol, respectivamente. Las ecuaciones generadas en este estudio contribuirán a mejorar la precisión en la estimación de la biomasa e inventarios de carbono en los bosques de P. cembroides.
