Abstract Studies are needed to evaluate the ability of Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) for forest aboveground biomass (AGB) extraction in mountainous areas. In this article, forest biomass was estimated at plot and stand levels, and different biomass grades, respectively. Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data with about one hit per m2 were first used for forest biomass estimation at the plot level, with R 2 of 0.77. Then the LiDAR-derived biomass, as prior knowledge, was used to investigate the relationship between ALOS PALSAR data and biomass. The results showed that at each biomass level, the range of the back-scatter coefficient in HH and HV polarization (where H and V represent horizontal and vertical polarizations, respectively, and the first of the two letters refers to the transmission polarization and the second to the received polarization) was very large and there was no obvious relationship between the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) back-scatter coefficient and biomass at plot level. At stand level and in different biomass grades, the back-scatter coefficient increased with the increase of forest biomass, and a logarithm equation can be used to describe the relationship. The main reason may be that forest structure is complex at the plot level, while the average value could partly decrease the influence of forest structure at stand level. Meanwhile, terrain radiometric correction (TRC) was investigated and found effective for forest biomass estimation.
