From: Variability and uncertainty in forest biomass estimates from the tree to landscape scale: the role of allometric equations

Fig. 6

Boxplots showing plot-level allometric uncertainty for local equations (those presented in this study), Jenkins et al. [11], and the Forest Inventory and Analysis Component Ratio Method (FIA-CRM). Allometric error was evaluated in two ways for Jenkins et al. [11] and local equations: equation-derived evaluation and independent evaluation against Legacy Tree Data (“Jenkins Leg.” and “Local Leg.”). The FIA-CRM model was only evaluated against Legacy tree data (“FIA-CRM Leg.”). Notches on the boxplots show roughly a 95% confidence interval for the medians. Diamonds are the mean
