Abstract

Peat swamp forest plays a very important role in absorbing and storing large amounts of terrestrial carbon, both above ground and in the soil. There has been a lot of research on the estimation of the amount of biomass above the ground, but a little on peat swamp ecosystems using light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology, especially in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to build a biomass estimation model based on LiDAR data. This technology can obtain information about the structure and characteristics of any vegetation in detail and in real time. Data was obtained from the East Kotawaringin Regency, Central Kalimantan. Biomass field was generated from the available allometry, and Point cloud of LiDAR was extracted into canopy cover (CC), and data on tree height, using the FRCI and local maxima (LM) method, respectively. The CC and tree height data were then used as independent variables in building the regression model. The best-fitted model was obtained after the scoring and ranking of several regression forms such as linear, quadratic, power, exponential and logarithmic. This research concluded that the quadratic regression model, with R2 of 72.16 % and root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.0003% is the best-fitted estimation model (BK). Finally, the biomass value from the models was 244.510 tons/ha.
