Biomassemengen
Biomassemengen refers to the quantities of biomass, the total mass of organic matter produced by living organisms, or available for use, within a given system. In ecological and agricultural contexts, it denotes the amount of biomass present or produced per area over time, and may be expressed as dry mass or carbon mass. Common units include tonnes or megatonnes, kilograms per square meter, or tonnes per hectare per year, with moisture content and dry matter fraction influencing conversions between units.
Measurement and estimation rely on field inventories, allometric equations, harvest data, and remote sensing. Biomass stock
Biomassemengen are used to assess energy potential, carbon storage, and the sustainability of land-use systems. In
