Remote sensing of forest biomass dynamics using Landsat-derived disturbance and recovery history and lidar data

Creator:

Pflugmacher, Dirk

Abstract:

Improved monitoring of forest biomass is needed to quantify natural and anthropogenic effects on the terrestrial carbon cycle. Landsat's temporal and spatial coverage, fine spatial grain, and long history of earth observations provide a unique opportunity for measuring biophysical properties of vegetation across large areas and long time scales. However,...

The Benefits of Time: Characterizing Intra-and Inter-Annual Variability in Oregon Wetland Ecosystems Using the Landsat Spectral-Temporal Domain

Creator:

Fickas, Kate C.

Abstract:

The use of Landsat data has historically been constrained to spectral and spatial information derived from a carefully selected image or set of images. However, free and open access to Landsat imagery combined with advances in data storage and computing are revolutionizing how the Landsat temporal domain is used to...
