Salinity and species richness determine mangrove canopy height
2020<p>Mangrove ecosystems play an important role in carbon sequestration of coastal wetlands through litterfall and soil carbon accumulation. Maximum canopy height (<em>H<sub>max</sub></em>) is a key variable in assessing above-ground carbon stocks and productivity, and it is ...

Laser altimeter canopy height profiles: methods and validation for closed-canopy, broadleaf forests
Remote Sensing of Environment, 2001Waveform-recording laser altimeter observations of vegetated landscapes provide a time-resolved measure of laser pulse backscatter energy from canopy surfaces and the underlying ground. Airborne laser altimeter waveform data was acquired using the Scanning Lidar Imager of Canopies by Echo Recovery (SLICER) for a successional sequence of four, closed ...

SAR radargrammetry and scanning LiDAR in predicting forest canopy height
2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012Our objective was to evaluate the accuracy of estimating forest canopy height when using scanning LiDAR and TerraSAR-X stereo radargrammetry. The study area was located in southern Finland. We used SAR radargrammetry and LiDAR to extract 3D point clouds to derive predictors used in the non-parametric prediction of forest canopy height.

Water availability predicts forest canopy height at the global scale
Ecology Letters, 2015AbstractThe tendency of trees to grow taller with increasing water availability is common knowledge. Yet a robust, universal relationship between the spatial distribution of water availability and forest canopy height (H) is lacking. Here, we created a global water availability map by calculating an annual budget as the difference between precipitation

A comparison between various definitions of forest stand height and aerodynamic canopy height
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2010A consistent measure of forest canopy height is required for among-site comparisons of meteorological properties and for comparison of model results such as distributions of wind and other scalars calculated by large eddy simulations with observations.

Comparative analysis of SRTM–NED vegetation canopy height to LIDAR‐derived vegetation canopy metrics
International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2009Vegetation canopy heights derived from the SRTM 30 m grid DEM minus USGS National Elevation Data (NED) DTM were compared to three vegetation metrics derived from a medium footprint LIDAR data (LVIS) for the US Sierra Nevada forest in California. Generally the SRTM minus NED was found to underestimate the vegetation canopy height. Comparing the SRTM-NED-

Tree and Canopy Height Estimation with Scanning Lidar
2003A large part of the research efforts concerning the remote sensing of forests has been devoted to the development of repeatable methods for the extraction of information from monoscopic, two-dimensional images. Emphasis has been on spectral pattern recognition.
