The global forest above-ground biomass pool for 2010 estimated from high-resolution satellite observations

TL;DR: Santoro et al. as discussed by the authors used satellite observations of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter around the year 2010 to generate a global, spatially explicit dataset of above ground live biomass (AGB; dry mass) stored in forests with a spatial resolution of 1'ha.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying forest biomass carbon stocks from space

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of cutting-edge methods and current and forthcoming satellite remote sensing technologies to map aboveground biomass (AGB) is presented, which is of key importance to understand the global carbon cycle and for the functioning of international economic mechanisms aiming to protect and enhance forest carbon stocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnitude, spatial distribution and uncertainty of forest biomass stocks in Mexico

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a maximum entropy (MaxEnt) algorithm to generate forest biomass (AGB ), its associated uncertainty, and forest probability maps, which showed a root mean square error of 17.31 when validated at the 250m pixel scale with inventory plots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting scenic beauty of forest stands in Catalonia (North-east Spain).

TL;DR: In this article, the relative priority of a forest stand was analyzed using regression methods for pairwise comparison between virtual reality images and photos of forest stands, and two models were developed based on two different groups of stands.
