  • Vertical structure and aboveground biomass of tropical forests from lidar remote sensing

    Creator:
    Gonçalves, Fabio Guimarães
    Abstract:
    Methods for obtaining accurate, spatially explicit estimates of biomass density in tropical forests are required to reduce uncertainties in the global carbon cycle, and to support international climate agreements and emerging carbon markets. Three-dimensional (3-D) remote sensing techniques sensitive to the vertical structure of vegetation provide a unique opportunity for...
