Predicting aboveground forest biomass with topographic variables in human‐impacted tropical dry forest landscapes

Abstract Topographic variables such as slope and elevation partially explain spatial variations in aboveground biomass (AGB) within landscapes. Human activities that impact vegetation, such as cattle grazing and shifting cultivation, often follow topographic features and also play a key role in dete...
