Past decade above-ground biomass change comparisons from four multi-temporal global maps
Above-ground biomass (AGB) is considered an essential climate variable that underpins our knowledge and information about the role of forests in mitigating climate change.

Remote Sensing of Above Ground Biomass [PDF]
Above ground biomass has been listed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as one of the five most prominent, visible, and dynamic terrestrial carbon pools. The increased awareness of the impacts of climate change has seen a burgeoning need to consistently assess carbon stocks to combat carbon sequestration.

Interferometric Ground Cancellation for Above Ground Biomass Estimation
A new processing technique, i.e., ground cancellation, which removes the ground signal from a pair of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, is used to emphasize the response from above-ground targets. This technique is of particular interest when studying forest canopies using low-frequency signals able to reach the underlying ground ...

Above-Ground Biomass and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Using Lidar Survey [PDF]
Space images from the Sentinel-2 satellite are a wide database for studying various attributes of large forest areas. One of these indicators is the aboveground biomass, which is related not only to the state and development of forests, but also to the ...

Tree-Level Above-Ground Biomass Equations for Pinus sylvestris L. in Mongolia
Allometric equations have been used as a main tool to quantify forest above-ground biomass. Therefore, the development of species-specific allometric equations is essential to accurately estimate forest biomass.

Above‐ground biomass and species richness in a Mediterranean salt marsh [PDF]
Abstract.Species composition, above‐ground biomass and diversity of herbaceous communities were recorded in 50 sites on the upper salt marsh of the Guadalquivir delta (SW Spain). Through Canonical Correspondence Analysis relationships were shown between plant‐species characteristics abundance and environmental variables.

Estimation of above‐ground biomass of large tropical trees with terrestrial LiDAR [PDF]
Abstract Tropical forest biomass is a crucial component of global carbon emission estimations. However, calibration and validation of such estimates require accurate and effective methods to estimate in situ above‐ground biomass (AGB). Present methods rely on allometric models that are highly uncertain for large tropical trees.
