Carbon fluxes in a mature deciduous forest under elevated CO₂ [PDF]
This PhD thesis addressed several major aspects of the carbon (C) cycle in a c. 100-year-old, mixed deciduous forest under elevated CO₂ with an emphasis on below-ground processes.

Canopy structural modeling using object-oriented image classification and laser scanning [PDF]
A terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) experiment was carried out in the EAGLE 2006 campaign to characterize and model the canopy structure of the Speulderbos forest. Semi-variogram analysis was used to describe spatial variability of the surface.

Die Baumkronenspinnen (Araneae) des Leipziger Auwaldes [PDF]
The canopy spiders of the floodplain forest in Leipzig have become a focus of ecological studies in recent years. In 2006 we sampled 30 tree canopies in the ‘Burgaue’ nature reserve with pyrethrum knock-down fogging, recording 502 adult spiders belonging

Light-related variation in sapling architecture of three shade-tolerant tree species of the Mexican rain forest [PDF]
The crown architecture of three shade-tolerant tree species (two subcanopy and one mid-canopy) was analyzed in relation to the light regime of the forest understorey.

Estimation of canopy structure and individual trees from laser scanning data [PDF]
During the last fifteen years, laser scanning has emerged as a data source for forest inventory. Airborne laser scanning (ALS) provides 3D data, which may be used in an automated analysis chain to estimate vegetation properties for large areas ...

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

Health assessment of plantations based on LiDAR canopy spatial structure parameters
The Yellow River Delta (YRD) has China's largest artificial Robinia pseudoacacia forest, which was planted in the late 1970s and suffered extensive dieback in the 1990s.
