A review of stem volume and biomass equations for tree species growing in Europe is presented. The mathematical forms the empirical models, associated statistical parameters information about size trees country origin were collated from scientific articles technical reports. total number compiled estimation was 607 prediction it 230. analysis indicated that most developed aboveground components. relatively small southern Europe. Most based on a few sampled sites with very limited trees. were, general, more representative data covering larger geographical regions. available major collected provides basic tool carbon stocks nutrient balance forest ecosystems across as well validation theoretical models allocation.
