Description
VAPU dataset for tree biomass was collected from southern Finland in 1988-1990 by the Finnish Forest Research Institute (Metla, now Natural Resources Institute Finland, Luke) (VAPU data set).
Those sample trees (162 Scots pine and 163 Norway spruce) are originated from the whole VAPU data set. The sheet 'Pine' and 'Spruce' data have been matched between 'sample branch measurements' and the 'biomass' information (by cluster X, Y, and plot, tree number).
Biomass estimation for foliage and branches has been described here: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2004.04.024 and https://doi.org/10.1093/treephys/25.7.803
