From: Evaluating revised biomass equations: are some forest types more equivalent than others?

Fig. 3

Effect of the two alternate biomass equations as relative difference in stock (panel a, positive difference, panel b, negative). Estimates are classified by forest type group and stand size class. The error bar represents the confidence interval used in the equivalence tests. In general, small stands have at least 50 % of stocking in small diameter trees, large stands have at least 50 % of stocking in large and medium diameter trees, with large tree stocking ≥ medium tree. The 12 forest type groups included here are: loblolly/shortleaf pine, pinyon/juniper, ponderosa pine, oak/pine, oak/hickory, and woodland hardwoods in panel a, and white/red/jack pine, spruce/fir, Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, hemlock/Sitka spruce, and maple/beech/birch in panel b
