a - biomass estimate based on the total harvest of 100 m2 circular plots.
b - biomass estimate includes trees and herbs.
c - biomass estimate includes trees > 1.5 cm DBH (including standing dead), based on allometric equations generated from 77 sample trees.
d - biomass estimate based on allometric equations generated from 20 sample trees per stand.
e - biomass estimate based on allometric equations generated from 68 trees.
f - biomass estimate based on proportional basal area allocation using 6 sample trees per stand.
g - biomass based on allometric equations generated from 10 sample trees per stand.
h - site is near the limit of the forest ecotype where potential evapotranspiration exceeds precipitation.
i - closest climate station was 4 degrees south of the site.
j - closest climate station was 1 degree east of, 0.5 degrees north of, and 180 m lower in altitude than the site.
k - longitude averaged from 23.8E to 24.2E.
l - latitude averaged from 60.5N to 61.5N.
m - soil order designation not available; assigned for this compilation based on published description (excerpted in "Soil Description" column).
