Synergistic use of very high-frequency radar and discrete-return lidar for estimating biomass in temperate hardwood and mixed forests

Table 1 General descriptive statistics for deciduous and coniferous plots

Type	Parameter	unit	Min	Max	Mean	σ
Coniferous	Height	m	8.44	31.56	18.12	3.92
	DBH	cm	12.70	53.10	24.10	7.87
	Biomass	tonnes/ha	11.60	202.00	96.90	47.80
Deciduous	Height	m	2.10	38.12	22.10	5.47

	Biomass	tonnes/ha	16.33	267.20	140.50	57.30

“Deciduous” or “coniferous” types were defined with majority contribution, from either deciduous or coniferous species, respectively. The last four columns show the minimum, maximum, mean, and standard deviation of the measured (height and DBH) and calculated (biomass) parameters
DBH diameter at breast height
