  • Remote sensing of forest aboveground biomass using the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System

    Creator:
    Pflugmacher, Dirk
    Abstract:
    Accurate estimates of forest aboveground biomass are needed to reduce uncertainties in the terrestrial carbon flux. The Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) onboard the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite is now the first spaceborne lidar sensor that will provide global estimates of vegetation height. This study investigated the utility...
