Description: Contains functions for estimating above-ground
        biomass/carbon and its uncertainty in tropical forests. These
        functions allow to (1) retrieve and correct taxonomy, (2)
        estimate wood density and its uncertainty, (3) build
        height-diameter models, (4) manage tree and plot coordinates,
        (5) estimate above-ground biomass/carbon at stand level with
        associated uncertainty. To cite ‘BIOMASS’, please use
        citation(‘BIOMASS’). For more information, see Réjou-Méchain et
        al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12753>.
