TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed the functional guilds mapping approach to monitor compositional changes of tropical forests, especially with respect to the effects of global climate change on forests, and particularly in the tropical biome where the occurrence of hundreds of species prevents mapping activities at species level.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the development and testing of a procedure which combines remotely sensed and ancillary data to monitor forest productivity in Italy, based on a straightforward parametric model (C-Fix) that uses the relationship between the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by plant canopies (fAPAR) and relevant gross primary productivity (GPP).

TL;DR: In this article, a review presented a multidisciplinary framework for integrating the ecological, regulatory, procedural and technical aspects of forest management for fires prevention under Mediterranean environments, with an outline commentary discussion targeted to professionals, technicians and government personnel involved in forestry and environmental management.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors test Sentinel-1 SAR multitemporal data, supported by multispectral and SAR data at other wavelengths, for fine-scale mapping of above-ground biomass (AGB) at the provincial level in a Mediterranean forested landscape.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ability of S2 for forest type mapping in a Mediterranean environment was evaluated using three operational S2 images covering different phenological periods (winter, spring, summer) were processed and analyzed.
