Estimation and modeling of selected forest metrics with lidar and Landsat

Creator:: Strunk, Jacob L.
Abstract:: Lidar is able to provide height and cover information which can be used to estimate selected forest attributes precisely. However, for users to evaluate whether the additional cost and complication associated with using Lidar merits adoption requires that the protocol to use lidar be thoroughly described and that a basis...

Using Airborne Light Detection and Ranging as a Sampling Tool for Estimating Forest Biomass Resources in the Upper Tanana Valley of Interior Alaska

Creator:: Andersen, Hans-Erik, Strunk, Jacob, and Temesgen, Hailemariam
Abstract:: Airborne laser scanning, collected in a sampling mode, has the potential to be a valuable tool for estimating the biomass resources available to support bioenergy production in rural communities of interior Alaska. In this study, we present a methodology for estimating forest biomass over a 201,226-ha area (of which 163,913...

Prediction of Forest Attributes with Field Plots, Landsat, and a Sample of Lidar Strips: A Case Study on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska

Creator:: Strunk, Jacob L., Temesgen, Hailemariam, Andersen, Hans-Erik, and Packalen, Petteri
Abstract:: In this study we demonstrate that sample strips of lidar in combination with Landsat can be used to predict forest attributes more precisely than from Landsat alone. While lidar and Landsat can each be used alone in vegetation mapping, the cost of wall to wall lidar may exceed users' financial...

Using multilevel remote sensing and ground data to estimate forest biomass resources in remote regions: a case study in the boreal forests of interior Alaska

Creator:: Andersen, Hans-Erik, Strunk, Jacob, Temesgen, Hailemariam, Atwood, Donald, and Winterberger, Ken
Abstract:: The emergence of a new generation of remote sensing and geopositioning technologies, as well as increased capabilities in image processing, computing, and inferential techniques, have enabled the development and implementation of increasingly efficient and cost-effective multilevel sampling designs for forest inventory. In this paper, we (i) describe the conceptual basis...

Model-Assisted Forest Yield Estimation with Light Detection and Ranging

Creator:: Strunk, Jacob L., Reutebuch, Stephen E., Andersen, Hans-Erik, Gould, Peter J., and McGaughey, Robert J.
Abstract:: Previous studies have demonstrated that light detection and ranging (LiDAR)-derived variables can be used to model forest yield variables, such as biomass, volume, and number of stems. However, the next step is underrepresented in the literature: estimation of forest yield with appropriate confidence intervals. It is of great importance that...

Comparing statistical techniques to classify the structure of mountain forest stands using CHM-derived metrics in Trento province (Italy)

Creator:: Torresan, Chiara L., Strunk, Jacob, Zald, Harold S. J., Zhiqiang, Yang, and Cohen, Warren B.
Abstract:: In some cases a canopy height model (CHM) is the only available source of forest height information. For these cases it is important to understand the predictive power of CHM data for forest attributes. In this study we examined the use of lidar-derived CHM metrics to predict forest structure classes...

Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus Recovered from Recreational and Commercial Areas of Chesapeake Bay and Maryland Coastal Bays

Creator:: Shaw, Kristi S., Goldstein, Rachel E. Rosenberg, He, Xin, Jacobs, John M., Crump, Byron C., and Sapkota, Amy R.
Abstract:: Vibrio vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus in the estuarine-marine environment are of human health significance and may be increasing in pathogenicity and abundance. Vibrio illness originating from dermal contact with Vibrio laden waters or through ingestion of seafood originating from such waters can cause deleterious health effects, particularly if the strains...

Estimating Forest Inventory Attributes Using Airborne LiDAR in Southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Shin, Joonghoon
Abstract:: This thesis mainly consists of two parts: (1) comparing statistical modeling methods based on the area-based approach (ABA) for predicting forest inventory attributes using airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data (Chapter 2), and (2) suggesting a new methodology fusing the individual tree detection (ITD) approach and the ABA for...
