Abstract:
Forest inventories are undergoing rapid changes due to an increasingly complex set of economic, environmental, and social policy objectives. Therefore, the objective is to identify, analyse, and discuss the main forest inventory methods at global, regional, and local levels, with an analytical perspective on the goals they seek to achieve in various forest ecosystems. For this review, information from 79 relevant studies related to the objectives and methods used in sampling forest resources in tropical, boreal, temperate, and arid ecosystems was considered.

Abstract:
Species richness and diversity substantially affect forest structures and function and are critical indicators of sustainable forest management. Sampling surveys are widely used in forest inventories because they efficiently assess forest characteristics. However, an appropriate sample plot design is required. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of plot design on estimating species richness and species diversity using a simulation. A 20 ha census plot was established in a temperate forest to obtain the true values of species richness and species diversity. One single plot

Abstract. Forests play key roles in climate regulation and essential environmental services for living organisms. This is why forests are the central focus of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 15). Thus, effective forest management is critical for forest sustainability and preservation. Remote sensing advancements have improved forest mensuration leveraging cost and time, contrary to the field surveying approach. Often, field data is required to validate remotely sensed results.

In the hydrological cycle, in both forest types, the B concentration in the bulk deposition was significantly lower than that in throughfall implying dry deposition. It was also shown that some long-range transfer of B took place in the atmosphere above both forests. The total B in soils was higher in the maquis forest reflecting the chemical composition of the parent material but also the proximity of the maquis forest to the sea. Likewise, the B concentration in the holm oa

Abstract. The recent development of REDD+ mechanisms require reliable estimation of carbon stocks, especially in tropical forests that are particularly threatened by global changes. Even if tree height is a crucial variable to compute the above-ground forest biomass, tree heights are rarely measured in large-scale forest census because it requires consequent extra-effort. Tree height have thus to be predicted thanks to height models. Height and diameter of all trees above 10 cm of diameter were measured in thirty-three half-ha plots and nine one-ha plots throughout the northern French Guiana,

AbstractIn 2000, we established a 24-ha plot in Peninsular Thailand to investigate how forest composition, structure and dynamics vary with spatial heterogeneity in resource availability. Detailed soil and topographic surveys were used to describe four edaphic habitats in the plot. Disturbance history was inferred from historical records and floristic analysis. The plot included &amp;gt;119 000 trees ≥1 cm dbh in 578 species, and was recensused in 2010.

Abstract:
Forests play a major role in the global carbon cycle. Previous studies on the capacity of forests to sequester atmospheric CO2 have mostly focused on carbon uptake, but the roles of carbon turnover time and its spatiotemporal changes remain poorly understood. Here, we used long-term inventory data (1955 to 2018) from 695 mature forest plots to quantify temporal trends in living vegetation carbon turnover time across tropical, temperate, and cold climate zones, and compared plot data to 8 Earth system models (ESMs). Long-term plots consistently showed decreases in living vegetation carbon turno

Timely acquisition of forest structure is crucial for understanding the dynamics of ecosystem functions.

In this study, different point clouds from UAV-mounted LiDAR and DAP under leaf-off conditions were first processed into individual tree point clouds, and then explicit 3D tree models of the forest were reconstructed using th

Accurate estimates of above ground biomass (AGB) are needed for monitoring carbon in tropical forests. LiDAR data can provide precise AGB estimations because it can capture the horizontal and vertical structure of vegetation. However, the accuracy of AGB estimations from LiDAR is affected by a co-registration error between LiDAR data and field plots resulting in spatial discrepancies between LiDAR and field plot data. Here, we evaluated the impacts of plot location error and plot size on the accuracy of AGB estimations predicted from LiDAR data in two types of tropical dry forests in Yucatán,

Observed variation in species richness on ecological gradients and between regions has attracted several different explanations. Climatic factors, such as energy availability, precipitation and mean annual temperature, are frequently cited to explain differences in species richness (Wright et al. 1993). The relative amount of variation in these variables may be of importance as well as absolute values (Stevens 1989, 1992). Alternatively, the history of colonization and extirpation have been used to explain regional variation in diversity (Guo et al. 1998; Latham &amp; Ricklefs 1993a, b). Area

This paper uses forest plot measurements and information on forest collective action to estimate the effects of collective action on four measures of forest quality (e.g., carbon content, tree density, seedling density and canopy cover) in Nepal. Carbon sequestration is of special interest because it may be creditable under Reducing Emmission from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+). We find that community forest collective action sequesters carbon and appears to support several other forest quality measures.
