Estimasi Cadangan Biomassa pada Pohon Gaharu (Aquilaria malaccensis Lamk) berumur 14 Tahun di Hutan Pendidikan Fahutan Unmul (HPFU) Samarinda Kalimantan Timur

Abstract

Agarwood Tree is one of the important species of tree that produces Gaharu resin. This research aimed to determine the tree physical condition, tree health, and biomass value. The research was examined in Education Forest of Mulawarman University Samarinda East Borneo. The method used for this research was purposive sampling, which purposely chooses the tree (Aquilaria malaccensis Lamk) as much as 40 trees. Whereas biomass value using three Allometrik equations with different parameters, obtained with the biggest biomass value using tree diameter, wood density, and tree length. Furthermore, the second biggest biomass value using two parameters of tree diameter and wood density, while the smallest biomass value using one parameter equation which was tree diameter.
