## The package

R package for estimating aboveground biomass and its uncertainty in tropical forests. 

Contains functions to estimate aboveground biomass/carbon and its uncertainty in tropical forests. 
These functions allow to:

1. retrieve and correct the taxonomy;
2. estimate the wood density and its uncertainty;
3. construct height-diameter models;
4. manage tree and plot coordinates;
5. estimate the aboveground biomass/carbon at the stand level with associated uncertainty;
