Author(s): HUNTER, M. O.; KELLER, M.; VICTORIA, D. de C.; MORTON, D. C. Tropical forests account for approximately half of above-ground carbon stored in global vegetation. However, uncertainties in tropical forest carbon stocks remain high because it is costly and laborio... ... |
Author(s): LUZ, L. R.; GIONGO, V.; SANTOS, A. M. dos; LOPES, R. J. de C.; LIMA JÚNIOR, C. de Continued unsustainable exploitation of natural resources promotes environmental degradation and threatens the preservation of dry forests around the world. This situation exposes the fragility and th... ... |
Author(s): LEITOLD, V.; KELLER, M.; MORTON, D. C.; SHIMABUKURO, Y. E. Landscape-scale quantification of forest structure, disturbance patterns and biomass distribution can improve our understanding of the environmental controls on the functioning of forested ecosystems.... ... |
Author(s): TREUHAFT, R.; GONÇALVES, F.; SANTOS, J. R. DOS; KELLER, M.; PALACE, M.; MADSEN, S. N.; SULLIVAN, F.; GRAÇA, P. M. L. A. This letter reports the sensitivity of X-band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data from the first dual-spacecraft radar interferometer, TanDEM-X, to variations in tropical-forest abov... ... |
Author(s): CARVALHO, H. F. de S.; SILVA, T. G. F. da; GALVINCIO, J. D.; ANTONIO, A. C. D.; MENEZES, R. S. C.; SANTOS, C. V. B. dos; MIRANDA, R. de Q.; NOBREGA, R. L. B.; DOMINGUES, T. F.; SILVA, E. A.; MOURA, M. S. B. de Structural parameters of vegetation and quantification of aboveground biomass (AGB) are important in forest monitoring to understand the vital cycle of ecosystems. This activity is even more challengi... ... |
Author(s): MEYER, V.; SAATCHI, S.; CLARCK, D. B.; KELLER, M.; VICENT, G.; FERRAZ, A.; ESPÍRITO-SANTO, F.; OLIVEIRA, M. V. N. d'; KAKI, D.; CHAVE, J. Large tropical trees store significant amounts of carbon in woody components and their distribution plays an important role in forest carbon stocks and dynamics. Here, we explore the Properties of a n... ... |

Author(s): FIGUEIREDO, E. O.; OLIVEIRA, M. V. N. d'; BRAZ, E. M.; PAPA, D. de A.; FEARNSIDE, P. M. Based on airborne LIDAR data on canopymorphology and height of Amazon forest trees, we developed allometric models to estimate dry biomass stored in the boles of dominant and co-dominant individuals a... ... |
Author(s): LU, D.; CHEN, Q.; WANG, G.; MORAN, E.; BATISTELLA, M.; ZHANG, M.; LAURIN, G. V.; SAAH, D. Landsat Thematic mapper (TM) image has long been the dominate data source, and recently LiDAR has offered an important new structural data stream for forest biomass estimations. On the other hand, for... ... |
Author(s): SANTOS, A. C. dos; SOTTA, E. D.; GUEDES, M. C.; BLANC, L. Tropical forests play an important role in maintaining the regional rainfall regime and global climate, besides representing a significant stock of carbon. This study aimed at evaluate above-ground bi... ... |
