Tree survey: All individual stems ≥ 10 cm diameter at breast height (1.3 m) were mapped within the core 1ha plot. Diameter at breast height and plant height was recorded for all stems. Tree volume calculations: The volume of each stem was calculated using species species allometric equations. Species volume allometric equations (source): Acacia melanoxylon: (Forrester et al., 2004) Dicksonia antarctica: (Beets et al., 2012) Eucalyptus obliqua: (Forestry Tasmania inventory data) Eucalyptus lucida: (Walker, B. B., & Candy, S. G., 1982) Phyllocladus aspleniifolius: (Walker, B. B., & Candy, S. G., 1982) Pomaderris apetala: (No published volume model. Used a conic volume (stem above 1.3 m) and cylindric volume (stem below 1.3m) Atherosperma moschatum: (No published volume model. Used a conic volume (stem above 1.3 m) and cylindric volume (stem below 1.3m) Nothofagus cunninghamii: (Harcomb et al., 1997) Standing dead trees: (Sohn et al., 2013) Tree biomass calculations: The biomass of each stem was calculated using published species-specific basic density measurements and expansion factors to convert total stem volume to total above-ground biomass and carbon using the following formulae: Standing biomass = Volume (m3) x basic density (tonnes/m3) x expansion factor Species-specific equations: A. melanoxylon: volume x 531 kg.m3 (Santos et al. 2012) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000) Eucalyptus obliqua: volume x 569 kg.m3 (Ximenes et al. 2008) x 1.58 (Ximenes et al., 2008) Eucalyptus lucida: volume x 500 kg.m3 (default value) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000) Phyllocladus aspleniifolius: volume x 500 kg.m3 (default value) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000) Pomaderris apetala: volume x 500 kg.m3 (default value) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000) Atherosperma moschatum: volume x 420 kg.m3 (Bootle, 2010) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000) Nothofagus cunninghamii: volume x 580 kg.m3 (Bootle, 2010) x 1.46 (Snowdon et al., 2000). Biomass of dead stems was calculated using a reduction factor of 85% of alive biomass (Bennett et al., 2013) Note: ...
