Implications of new biomass and carbon models for standing dead trees in the United States
Forest carbon
Presentation
Presentation at 2025 Society of American Foresters National Convention.
Recently, the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service’s Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program updated its equations used to estimate the volume, biomass, and carbon stored in trees across US forests. This presentation discusses the implications of these new equations on the standing dead tree carbon pool across US forests. These slides were presented at the 2025 Society of American Foresters National Convention in Hartford, CT on Oct. 23, 2025.
