How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Assessing the performance of random forest regression for estimating canopy height in tropical dry forests

open access: yes, 2023
Accurate estimation of forest canopy height is essential for monitoring forest ecosystems and assessing their carbon storage potential. This study evaluates the effectiveness of different remote sensing techniques for estimating forest canopy height in ...

Hybrid model for estimating forest canopy heights using fused multimodal spaceborne LiDAR data and optical imagery

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2023
The forest canopy height is a key indicator for measuring global forest carbon stocks. Spaceborne LiDAR, a satellite remote sensing technology, plays an essential role in large-scale canopy height estimations.

A mosaic of microclimates: biodiversity outcomes and wildlife habitat potential in large‐scale solar facilities

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid global expansion of photovoltaic (PV) solar facilities, now comprising nearly 80% of the recent and projected growth of renewable electricity, represents one of the most significant land‐use changes of the 21st century. While PV facilities are critical for decarbonising energy systems, their large spatial footprint and infrastructure

Canopy Height Model

open access: yes, 2014
An example of an object-based approach to generating Canopy Height Models (CHM). The object based approach to CHM generation has advantages over traditional raster CHMs based on LiDAR alone, particularly when leaf-of LiDAR are used.

Canopy height Mapper: A google earth engine application for predicting global canopy heights combining GEDI with multi-source data

open access: yesEnvironmental Modelling & Software
Spatially and temporally discontinuous canopy height footprints collected by NASA's GEDI (Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation) mission are accessible on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud computing platform. This study introduces an open-source, user-friendly, code-free GEE web application called Canopy Height Mapper (CH-GEE), available at https://

New global map of forest canopy height [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012
Just how tall are forests around the world? A new global map shows forest canopy height at 1‐kilometer spatial resolution. Simard et al. used satellite data from the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System aboard the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) to create a global map of the height of the forest canopy.

Canopy and Terrain Height Retrievals with ICESat-2: A First Look [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
NASA’s Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) launched in fall 2018 and has since collected continuous elevation data over the Earth’s surface. The primary scientific objective is to measure the cryosphere for studies related to land ice and sea ice characteristics.
