  • Challenges to aboveground biomass prediction from waveform lidar

    Open AccessJamis M Bruening, Rico Fischer et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    Accurate accounting of aboveground biomass density (AGBD) is crucial for carbon cycle, biodiversity, and climate change science. The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI), which maps global AGBD from waveform lidar, is the first of a new generation of Earth observation missions designed to improve carbon accounting. This paper explores the possibility that lidar waveforms may not be unique to AGBD—that forest stands with different AGBD m…

  • Can timber provision from Amazonian production forests be sustainable

    Open AccessCamille Piponiot, Edna Rödig et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2019

    Around 30 Mm 3 of sawlogs are extracted annually by selective logging of natural production forests in Amazonia, Earth’s most extensive tropical forest. Decisions concerning the management of these production forests will be of major importance for Amazonian forests’ fate. To date, no regional assessment of selective logging sustainability supports decision-making. Based on data from 3500 ha of forest inventory plots, our modelling results show t…

  • Gap models and their individual-based relatives in the assessment of the consequences of global change

    Open AccessHerman H Shugart, Bin Wang et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    Individual-based models (IBMs) of complex systems emerged in the 1960s and early 1970s, across diverse disciplines from astronomy to zoology. Ecological IBMs arose with seemingly independent origins out of the tradition of understanding the ecosystems dynamics of ecosystems from a ‘bottom-up’ accounting of the interactions of the parts. Individual trees are principal among the parts of forests. Because these models are computationally demanding, …

  • The importance of forest structure for carbon fluxes of the Amazon rainforest

    Open AccessEdna Rödig, Matthias Cuntz et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    Precise descriptions of forest productivity, biomass, and structure are essential for understanding ecosystem responses to climatic and anthropogenic changes. However, relations between these components are complex, in particular for tropical forests

  • Simulating forest dynamics of a tropical montane forest in South Ecuador

    Open AccessClaudia Dislich, Sven Günter et al.ARTICLEErdkunde2009

    The montane forests of Ecuador are part of one of the world's hotspots of biodiversity and they also suffer the highest deforestation rate amongst South American countries. The processes that drive the dynamics of these highly diverse ecosystems are poorly understood. This is particularly true for transient dynamics, which are crucial for the protection and sustainable management of such forests. Dynamic simulation models can be used to analyse t…
