Based on the seventh national forestry inventory data, the biomass expansion factors of various kinds of tree species derived from IPCC and the weighted regression model were more stable than the biomass expansion factors derived from continuous function method.The growth rate of biomass between two periods was the same regular pattern as the biomass expansion factors.展开更多
