CLASSIFICATION OF TREE SPECIES AND STANDING DEAD TREES BY FUSING UAV-BASED LIDAR DATA AND MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY IN THE 3D DEEP NEURAL NETWORK POINTNET++ [PDF]
Knowledge of tree species mapping and of dead wood in particular is fundamental to managing our forests. Although individual tree-based approaches using lidar can successfully distinguish between deciduous and coniferous trees, the classification of ...

Drivers of greenhouse gas emissions from standing dead trees in ghost forests [PDF]
Abstract Coastal freshwater forested wetlands are rapidly transitioning from forest to marsh, leaving behind many standing dead trees (snags) in areas often called ‘ghost forests’. Snags can act as conduits for soil produced greenhouse gases (GHG) and can also be sources as they decompose.

Stock of standing dead trees in boreal forests of Central Siberia
A significant part of carbon assimilated by forest is deposited in tree trunks. Growth and development of tree stands is accompanied by accumulation of standing dead trees (snags) due to natural tree mortality and as a result of the impact of exogenous ...

Standing dead trees are known to house diverse assemblages of vertebrates in temperate forests worldwide. In temperate austral forests of South America, however, the functional role of dead trees has been mostly focused on cavity provision, but other ...

Deadwood is an important key ecological element for forest ecosystem biodiversity. Its low occurrence, especially in managed forests, makes inventory through field campaigns challenging. Remote sensing can provide a more objective and systematic approach

Detecting the presence of standing dead trees using airborne laser scanning and optical data
Deadwood is an important indicator of biodiversity in forest ecosystems. Identifying areas with large density of standing dead trees through field inventory is challenging, and remotely sensed data can provide a more systematic approach.

Standing dead trees contribute significantly to carbon budgets in Australian savannas
Previous estimates of greenhouse gas emissions from Australian savanna fires have incorporated on-ground dead wood but ignored standing dead trees. However, research from eucalypt woodlands in southern Queensland has shown that the two pools of dead ...

Pine root exploration of standing dead tree trunks: a short-cut biocycling process
Aim of study: To characterize the colonization of Pinus herrerae roots in trunks of dead standing trees and to evaluate the composition of roots and decomposing tissues of standing dead trees. Area of study. Jaguariaíva, Paraná state, Southern Brazil.

Standing dead trees (snags) are recognized for their influence on methane (CH4) cycling in coastal wetlands, yet the biogeochemical processes that control the magnitude and direction of fluxes across the snag-atmosphere interface are not fully elucidated.

Background Standing dead trees are one component of forest ecosystem dead wood carbon (C) pools, whose national stock is estimated by the U.S. as required by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
