| description | Trees sequester and store large amounts of carbon within their biomass, thus helping to mitigate the effects of the greenhouse gasses (GHG). To date, no allometric equations exist to estimate biomass of the forest tree species from Guerrero, Mexico. That is why the aim of the present study was to generate equations to estimate aboveground biomass for Pinus oocarpa Schiede and Quercus resinosa Liebmann. Databases consisted of 33 and 19 sample trees for the pine and oak species, respectively, all of them distributed in temperate forest within Hueyapa river micro-watershed, Guerrero, Mexico. The biomass was estimated based on the dry weight of 6 to 14 samples per tree component, according to tree size. Power models were adjusted in their linear form and with Box-Cox transformation. The model that best estimated the aboveground biomass in P. oocarpa was the power function and for Q. resinosa it was the one obtained with the Box-Cox transformation, using the logarithm of the diameter at breast height ( ) and the transformed combined variable as the independent one, respectively. The allometric equations generated fill the existing vacuum for the estimating the aboveground biomass of these forest species in Guerrero state. |

Los árboles capturan y almacenan grandes cantidades de carbono en su biomasa e impactan positivamente en la mitigación de los gases de efecto invernadero (GEI). Hasta esta fecha, no existen ecuaciones alométricas que estimen la biomasa de árboles del estado de Guerrero, México. El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo generar ecuaciones para estimar la biomasa aérea de árboles de Pinus oocarpa Schiede y Quercus resinosa Liebmann. Se realizó un muestreo destructivo de 33 árboles para la primera especie y 19 para la segunda, distribuidos en el bosque templado de la microcuenca del río Hueyapa, Guerrero, México. La biomasa de los componentes del árbol se estimó con base en el peso seco de 6 a 14 muestras por componente arbóreo, según el tamaño del árbol. Se ajustaron modelos potenciales en su forma lineal y con transformación Box-Cox. El modelo que mejor estimó la biomasa aérea en P. oocarpa fue el potencial y para Q. resinosa fue el que se obtuvo con la transformación Box-Cox, usando logaritmo del diámetro normal ( ) y la variable combinada transformada como variable independiente. Las ecuaciones alométricas generadas rellenan el vacío existente para la estimación de la biomasa aérea de estas especies forestales en el estado de Guerrero.
