For anyone who was curious, I too had to look this up but the "dry biomass" is the mass minus moisture. I see different estimates of this. This estimate [1] estimates humanity's biomass at 60 megatons, which differs widely from this paper's estimate (which seems to be 10 megatons). Here's a fun fact. The desnity of humans is roughly that of water (1000kg/m^3). Humans are 18% carbon so humanity's mass is 333 megatons. If we squished everyone into a sphere is would only be 860 meters across.
