Effects of forest fire severity on terrestrial carbon emission and ecosystem production in the Himalayan region, India [PDF]
Science of the Total Environment, 2020, 2018 Remote sensing techniques have been used effectively for measuring the overall loss of terrestrial ecosystem production and biodiversity due to the forest fire. The current research focuses on assessing the impact of forest fire severity on terrestrial ecosystem productivity using different burn indices in Uttarakhand, India.
