Applications of LiDAR remote sensing are exploding, while moving from the research to the
operational realm. Increasingly, natural resource managers are recognizing the tremendous …

Old-growth forests (OGF) provide valuable ecosystem services such as habitat provision,
carbon sequestration or recreation maintaining biodiversity, carbon storage, or human well …

We developed a global, 30-m resolution dataset of percent tree cover by rescaling the 250-
m MOderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Vegetation Continuous Fields …

Deforestation is a major driver of climate change and the major driver of biodiversity loss,.
Yet the essential baseline for monitoring forest cover—the global area of forests—remains …

This paper describes a deep-learning-based unsupervised forest height estimation method
based on the synergy of the high-resolution L-band repeat-pass Polarimetric Synthetic …

Carbon sequestration service of Mediterranean forest and other wooded land is threatened
by their fragile, complex, and highly evolving nature, due to both human disturbances and …

Greenhouse gas inventories and emissions reduction programs require robust methods to
quantify carbon sequestration in forests. We compare forest carbon estimates from Light …

We present two improvements for laser-based forest inventory. The first improvement is
based on using last pulse data for tree detection. When trees overlap, the surface model …

There is a need for accurate inventory methods that produce relevant and timely information
on the forest resources and carbon stocks for forest management planning and for …

Canopy height serves as a good indicator of forest carbon content. Remote sensing-based
direct estimations of canopy height are usually based on Light Detection and Ranging …
