Abstract:
In order to study the measurement method of urban forest tridimensional green biomass(TGB) and its ratio of precision with true color aerial photo and ARC/GIS,using a method of "estimating tridimensional volume by tridemensional volume",the TGB of urban forests of Shenyang in August 2001 was measured.TGB per unit area of recreation forests was 5.35 m
3/m
2,which was the highest of urban forest types.The TGB of subordinated forests,road forests,ecological and public welfare forests,and production and management forests were 4.93,3.65,3.62 and 2.35 m
3/m
2.TGB per unit area in urban forest distribution area was 4.25 m
3/m
2 and that in Shenyang urban area was 0.35 m
3/m
2.Total TGB of Shenyang urban forests was 161 296 716.85 m
3.Subordinated forests,ecological and public welfare forests,landscape and relaxation forests,road forests,and production and management forests accounted for 37.27%,26.86%,18.90%,14.78% and 2.19% of the total,and their TGB were 60 116 966.36,43 321 771.43,30 482 879.04,23 841 208.75 and 3 533 891.27 m
3 respectively.Having checked this method,its ratio of precision was up to 85.50%(α=0.05).
