Integrating Landsat pixel composites and change metrics with lidar plots to predictively map forest structure and aboveground biomass in Saskatchewan, Canada
Harold S. J. Zald,Michael A. Wulder,Joanne C. White,Thomas Hilker,Txomin Hermosilla,Geordie W. Hobart,Nicholas C. Coops +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors predict and map forest structure and aboveground biomass over 37 million ha of forestland in Saskatchewan, Canada using a Random Forest (RF) implementation of Nearest Neighbor (NN) imputation.

Lidar plots — a new large-area data collection option: context, concepts, and case study
Michael A. Wulder,Joanne C. White,Christopher W. Bater,Nicholas C. Coops,Chris Hopkinson,Gang Chen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed the collection and integration of light detection and ranging (lidar) based plot data to support forest inventory and scientific applications, particularly for large areas.

Understanding Forest Health with Remote Sensing-Part II—A Review of Approaches and Data Models
TL;DR: The ST/STV approach provides a framework to develop a standardized monitoring concept for FH indicators using RS techniques that is applicable to future monitoring programs, and it is found that ST/ STV can be used to record indicators of FH based on RS.

Digital Aerial Photogrammetry for Updating Area-Based Forest Inventories: A Review of Opportunities, Challenges, and Future Directions
TL;DR: This work examines the use of DAP for area-based forest inventory applications, comparing data inputs, algorithms, and outcomes across numerous studies and forest environments and outlines outstanding research gaps that require further inquiry.

Ecological constraints increase the climatic debt in forests.
Romain Bertrand,Gabriela Riofrio-Dillon,Jonathan Lenoir,Jacques Drapier,Patrice de Ruffray,Jean-Claude Gégout,Michel Loreau +6 more
TL;DR: Assessment of determinants of climatic debt accumulated in French forest herbaceous plant communities between 1987 and 2008 shows that warmer baseline conditions predispose plant communities to larger climatic debts, and that climate warming exacerbate this response.
