“…The method provides information about: • Cover and height (or depth) of each strata; • Mass of fine fuels of litter, dead suspended and live understorey layers (dead fuel diameter (d) ≤ 0.6 cm, live fuel d ≤ 0.4 cm); and • Mass and size class distribution of downed woody fuels (d>0.6 cm).The protocol integrates a variety of sampling methods including destructive sampling for fine fuel particles, line intersect method for downed woody fuel, and indirect approaches relying on
double sampling techniques to estimate live understorey, bark and overstorey canopy fuels. …”
