Urban forests provide various ecosystem services. Although the function of reducing particulate matter (PM) in the city is known, research into the reduction of PM according to the type and structure of various forests is still needed. It is essential to

Forest canopy openings are a key element of forest structure, influencing a host of ecological dynamics. Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) is the de-facto standard for measuring three-dimensional forest structure, but digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP)

Similar to light detection and ranging (lidar), profile radar can detect forest vertical structure directly. Recently, the first Ku-band profile radar system designed for forest applications, called Tomoradar, has been developed and evaluated in boreal ...

Evaluating the Use of Lidar to Discern Snag Characteristics Important for Wildlife
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]
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

Abstract Saving Europe's remaining natural forests is one of the main objectives of the political challenges to stop the ongoing decline of biodiversity. Conservationists and foresters need objective data to assess the success or failure of management actions to conserve biodiversity.

Height-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees [PDF]
Tropical tree height-diameter (H:D) relationships may vary by forest type and region making large-scale estimates of above-ground biomass subject to bias if they ignore these differences in stem allometry.
