Comparison between Artificial and Human Estimates in Urban Tree Canopy Assessments
Urban tree canopy (UTC) is commonly used to assess urban forest extent and has traditionally been estimated using photointerpretation and human intelligence (HI).

Tree Canopies Reflect Mycorrhizal Composition
AbstractMycorrhizae alter global patterns of CO2 fertilization, carbon storage, and elemental cycling, yet knowledge of their global distributions is currently limited by the availability of forest inventory data. Here, we show that maps of tree‐mycorrhizal associations (hereafter “mycorrhizal maps”) can be improved by the novel technology of imaging ...

The urban heat island (UHI) is increasingly recognized as a serious, worldwide problem because of urbanization and climate change. Urban vegetation is capable of alleviating UHI and improving urban environment by shading together with evapotranspiration.

Utilizing LiDAR data to map tree canopy for urban ecosystem extent and condition accounts in Oslo
LiDAR-based segmentation of urban tree canopies and their physical properties (canopy height, canopy diameter, 3D surface and volume) is a replicable, complementary and useful information source for urban ecosystem condition accounts, and an important ...

Composition and Host-Use Patterns of a Scarab Beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) Community Inhabiting the Canopy of a Lowland Tropical Rainforest in Southern Venezuela [PDF]
The adult scarab beetle fauna of the canopy in a lowland tropical rainforest in southern Venezuela was observed and collected by means of a 42 m-tall tower crane for a complete year.

Vision-based normalized canopy area estimation for variable nitrogen application in apple orchards
Normalized canopy area is a measure of spatial canopy fill or canopy coverage in a tree. It is an important factor for growers to consider in making various farming decisions, such as timing and amount of fertilization, pesticide application, and ...
