Caragana microphylla is the most representative plant in the shrub-encroached grassland of Inner Mongolia. Accurately estimating the aboveground biomass of Caragana microphylla is critical to study the shrub-encroached grassland ecosystem function further and to monitor the degree of shrub encroachment. Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) can accurately estimate shrub volume by acquiring high-density point cloud data. It is widely used to measure shrub biomass. However, this scanning method has not been effectively applied in shrub-encroached grassland. In this study, the field-measured TLS point cloud data and the shrub biomass of 42 shrubs were first obtained in five plots (10 m × 10 m) from the shrub-encroached grassland vegetation restoration experimental area of ​​the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The volume of shrub was then calculated using the method of global convex hull, convex hull by slices, volume calculation by sections, volumetric surface differencing, and voxels. The regression analysis was also carried out to predict biomass. Finally, the accuracy of biomass estimation models established by the five methods was compared and analyzed by leave-one-out cross validation. Results showed that TLS can achieve the rapid and accurate inversion of Caragana microphylla biomass without destroying vegetation, which is a reliable alternative technology for traditional field investigation methods. The five methods used in the study were able to estimate biomass effectively. Compared with the global convex hull (R2=0.87, p<0.001, RMSE=30.50 g), the convex hull by slices (R2=0.89, p<0.001, RMSE=28.01 g) and the volume calculation by sections (R2=0.88, p<0.001, RMSE=29.03 g) could effectively reduce the overestimation of the volume caused by outliers, thus improving the accuracy of biomass estimation. The volumetric surface differencing fitted best with the measured biomass (R2=0.89, p<0.001, RMSE=28.89 g) when the grid size is 3 cm. The standard deviation of height was selected as the optimal height metric of biomass prediction for Caragana microphylla. The method that used voxels explained 90% of the variation in biomass estimates (R2=0.90, p<0.001, RMSE=26.28 g). Thus, it was the best model for the biomass inversion of Caragana microphylla.
