Global humid tropics forest structural condition and forest structural integrity maps [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2019 AbstractRemotely sensed maps of global forest extent are widely used for conservation assessment and planning. Yet, there is increasing recognition that these efforts must now include elements of forest quality for biodiversity and ecosystem services. Such data are not yet available globally.

Characterizing heterogeneous forest structure in ponderosa pine forests via UAS-derived structure from motion. [PDF]
Environ Monit AssessAbstractIncreasingly, dry conifer forest restoration has focused on reestablishing horizontal and vertical complexity and ecological functions associated with frequent, low-intensity fires that characterize these systems. However, most forest inventory approaches lack the resolution, extent, or spatial explicitness for describing tree-level spatial ...

Evaluating the Use of Lidar to Discern Snag Characteristics Important for Wildlife
Remote Sensing, 2022 Standing dead trees (known as snags) are historically difficult to map and model using airborne laser scanning (ALS), or lidar. Specific snag characteristics are important for wildlife; for instance, a larger snag with a broken top can serve as a nesting

Forest Structure Assessment of a Rehabilitated Forest [PDF]
American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, 2011 Planteamiento del problema: La evaluación de la estructura forestal proporciona información sobre la sucesión forestal, la dinámica, la biodiversidad y la salud que son importantes, pero solo se dispone de poca información sobre el bosque rehabilitado. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la estructura forestal de los rodales de edad seleccionada en

Forest structure and anthropogenic disturbances regulate plant invasion in urban forests [PDF]
Urban Ecosystems, 2021 Abstract Urban forest ecosystems, the structure and functions therein, are subjected to anthropogenic disturbances. Native and sensitive species from those forests might be lost due to such disturbances. At the same time, supplemented anthropogenic resources might create opportunities for exotic and invasive species.
