Abstract
A set of functions for the estimation of aerial biomass have been calculated on data from 17 Mediterranean shrub species. Together with the methods here used, those applied in the relevant literature are discussed. Simple structural parameters like cover, height and biovolume proved to scale allometrically with weight. Models based on raw untransformated data rendered the best results.
