Abstract:
Predictive vegetation mapping is an essential tool for managing and conserving high conservation-value forests. Cool temperate rainforests (Rainforest) and cool temperate mixed forests (Mixed Forest, i.e., rainforest spp. overtopped by large remnant Eucalyptus trees) are threatened forest types in the Central Highlands of Victoria. Logging of these forest types is prohibited; however, the surrounding native Eucalyptus forests can be logged in some areas of the landscape. This requires accurate mapping and delineation of these vegetation types. In this study, we combine niche modelling, multisp

Offering remarkable biodiversity, coastal salt marshes also provide a wide variety of ecosystem services: cultural services (leisure, tourist amenities), supply services (crop production, pastoralism) and regulation services including carbon sequestration and natural protection against coastal erosion and inundation.

This study sought to establish the performance of Spatially Varying Coefficient (SVC) Bayesian Hierarchical models using Landsat-8, and Sentinel-2 derived auxiliary information in predicting plantation forest carbon (C) stock in the eastern highlands of Zimbabwe. The development and implementation of Zimbabwe’s land reform program undertaken in the year 2000 and the subsequent redistribution and resizing of large-scale land holdings are hypothesized to have created heterogeneity in aboveground forest biomass in plantation ecosystems.

Recent literature reflects the substantial progress in combining spatial, temporal and spectral capacities for remote sensing applications. As a result, new issues are arising, such as the need for methodologies that can process simultaneously the different dimensions of satellite information. This paper presents PLS regression extended to three-way data in order to integrate multiwavelengths as variables measured at several dates (time-series) and locations with Sentinel-2 at a regional scale.

Abstract:
Context Hollow-bearing trees are an important breeding and shelter resource for wildlife in Australian native forests and hollow availability can influence species abundance and diversity in forest ecosystems. A persistent problem for forest managers is the ability to locate and survey hollow-bearing trees with a high level of accuracy at low cost over large areas of forest. Aims The aim of this study was to determine whether remote-sensing techniques could identify key variables useful in classifying the likelihood of a tree to contain hollows suitable for wildlife.

Leek farmers tend to apply too much nitrogen fertilizer as its cost is relatively low compared to the gross value of leek. Recently, several studies have shown that proximal sensing technologies could accurately monitor the crop nitrogen content and biomass. However, their implementation is impeded by practical limitations and the limited area they can cover. UAV-based monitoring might alleviate these issues. Studies on UAV-based vegetable crop monitoring are still limited. Because of the economic importance and environmental impact of leeks in Flanders, this study aimed to investigate the abi

Using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based multispectral sensors, this study assessed crop phenology and biotic stress conditions using various spectral vegetation indices. The goal was to enhance the accuracy of predicting key agricultural parameters, such as leaf area index (LAI), soil and plant analyser development (SPAD) chlorophyll, and grain yield of maize.

Satellite forest inventories are the only feasible way to map Canada’s vast, remote forest regions, such as those in the Northwest Territories (NWT). A method used to create such inventories is the k-nearest neighbour (k-NN) algorithm, which spatially extends information from forest inventory (FI) plots to the entire forest land base using wall-to-wall features typically derived from Landsat data. However, the benefits of integrating L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, strongly correlated to forest biomass, have not been assessed for Canadian northern boreal forests. Here we describe a
