A high-resolution canopy height model of the Earth. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Ecol Evol, 2023
AbstractThe worldwide variation in vegetation height is fundamental to the global carbon cycle and central to the functioning of ecosystems and their biodiversity. Geospatially explicit and, ideally, highly resolved information is required to manage terrestrial ecosystems, mitigate climate change and prevent biodiversity loss.

Integrating UAVs and Canopy Height Models in Vineyard Management: A Time-Space Approach [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The present study illustrates an operational approach estimating individual and aggregate vineyards’ canopy volume estimation through three years Tree-Row-Volume (TRV) measurements and remotely sensed imagery acquired with unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) Red-Green-Blue (RGB) digital camera, processed with MATLAB scripts, and validated through ArcGIS ...

A 0.6-meter resolution canopy height model for the contiguous United States. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Data
Abstract Above-ground vertical structure is a critical variable for ecosystem monitoring, carbon accounting, and land management. However, the high cost and limited coverage of airborne lidar hinder its widespread application. To address this, we developed NAIP-CHM, a 0.6-meter resolution canopy height and structure model (CHM ...

Impact of Error in Lidar-Derived Canopy Height and Canopy Base Height on Modeled Wildfire Behavior in the Sierra Nevada, California, USA [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
Light detection and ranging (Lidar) data can be used to create wall-to-wall forest structure and fuel products that are required for wildfire behavior simulation models. We know that Lidar-derived forest parameters have a non-negligible error associated with them, yet we do not know how this error influences the results of fire behavior modeling that ...

Research on Estimating Rice Canopy Height and LAI Based on LiDAR Data

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Rice canopy height and density are directly usable crop phenotypic traits for the direct estimation of crop biomass. Therefore, it is crucial to rapidly and accurately estimate these phenotypic parameters.

Correcting Underestimation and Overestimation in PolInSAR Forest Canopy Height Estimation Using Microwave Penetration Depth

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
PolInSAR is an active remote sensing technique that is widely used for forest canopy height estimation, with the random volume over ground (RVoG) model being the most classic and effective forest canopy height inversion approach.

Weak Environmental Controls of Tropical Forest Canopy Height in the Guiana Shield

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
Canopy height is a key variable in tropical forest functioning and for regional carbon inventories. We investigate the spatial structure of the canopy height of a tropical forest, its relationship with environmental physical covariates, and the ...
