Area-based vs tree-centric approaches to mapping forest carbon in Southeast Asian forests from airborne laser scanning data
2017-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Tropical forests are a key component of the global carbon cycle, and mapping their carbon density is essential for understanding human influences on climate and for ecosystem-service-based payments for forest protection. Discrete-return airborne laser scanning (ALS) is increasingly recognised as a high-quality technology for mapping tropical forest carbon, because it generates 3D point clouds of forest structure f...
