ESTIMATING TREE CANOPY HEIGHT IN DENSELY FOREST-COVERED MOUNTAINOUS AREAS USING GEDI SPACEBORNE FULL-WAVEFORM DATA [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022
Tree canopy height is an important parameter for estimating forest carbon stock, and mountainous areas with dense vegetation cover are the main distribution areas of trees, so it is important to accurately measure the forest canopy height in mountainous ...

Regionalization of an Existing Global Forest Canopy Height Model for Forests of the Southern United States [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
A large-scale global canopy height map (GCHM) is essential for global forest aboveground biomass estimation. Four GCHMs have recently been built using data from the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) sensor aboard the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat), along with auxiliary spatial and climate information.

High-resolution forest canopy height estimation in an African blue carbon ecosystem. [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sens Ecol Conserv, 2015
AbstractMangrove forests are one of the most productive and carbon dense ecosystems that are only found at tidally inundated coastal areas. Forest canopy height is an important measure for modeling carbon and biomass dynamics, as well as land cover change. By taking advantage of the flat terrain and dense canopy cover, the present study derived digital

Analyzing Canopy Height Patterns and Environmental Landscape Drivers in Tropical Forests Using NASA’s GEDI Spaceborne LiDAR

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Canopy height is a fundamental parameter for determining forest ecosystem functions such as biodiversity and above-ground biomass. Previous studies examining the underlying patterns of the complex relationship between canopy height and its environmental ...

Global patterns and determinants of forest canopy height.

open access: yesEcology, 2016
AbstractForest canopy height is an important indicator of forest biomass, species diversity, and other ecosystem functions; however, the climatic determinants that underlie its global patterns have not been fully explored. Using satellite LiDAR‐derived forest canopy heights and field measurements of the world's giant trees, combined with climate ...

Modeling tree canopy height using machine learning over mixed vegetation landscapes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
Although the random forest algorithm has been widely applied to remotely sensed data to predict characteristics of forests, such as tree canopy height, the effect of spatial non-stationarity in the modeling process is oftentimes neglected.

Spatially Continuous Mapping of Forest Canopy Height in Canada by Combining GEDI and ICESat-2 with PALSAR and Sentinel

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Continuous large-scale mapping of forest canopy height is crucial for estimating and reporting forest carbon content, analyzing forest degradation and restoration, or to model ecosystem variables such as aboveground biomass.
