The flowering of Atlantic Forest Pleroma trees [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractMapping the spatial distribution of a plant is a current challenge in ecology. Here, a convolutional neural network (CNN) and 33,798 Sentinel-2 satellite images were used to detect and map forest stands dominated by trees of the genusPleromaby their magenta-to-deep-purple blossoms in the entire Brazilian Atlantic Forest domain, from June 2016 ...
