Gedi waveform metrics in vegetation mapping—a case study from a heterogeneous tropical forest landscape
Open AccessAdrian Dwiputra, Nicholas C Coops et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023
The distribution of different vegetation types is important information for landscape management, especially in the context of tackling global environmental change. Vegetation types can be mapped using satellite and airborne passive remote sensing. However, spectrally similar yet structurally different vegetation types, like different tree-dominated land covers, are often challenging to map using spectral information alone. We examined the potent…
Amazonian secondary forests are greatly reducing fragmentation and edge exposure in old-growth forests
Open AccessCharlotte C Smith, Jos Barlow et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023
Restoration of tropical landscapes through the expansion of secondary forests is crucial for climate change mitigation and offers co-benefits for biodiversity. However, the strength of these benefits is influenced by the position of these secondary forests within the landscape. Recovery of both carbon stocks and biodiversity in secondary forests are enhanced by proximity to old-growth forests, and old-growth forests may benefit from secondary for…
Land-use dynamics influence estimates of carbon sequestration potential in tropical second-growth forest
Open AccessNaomi B Schwartz, Miren Uriarte et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017
Many countries have made major commitments to carbon sequestration through reforestation under the Paris Climate Agreement, and recent studies have illustrated the potential for large amounts of carbon sequestration in tropical second-growth forests. However, carbon gains in second-growth forests are threatened by non-permanence, i.e. release of carbon into the atmosphere from clearing or disturbance. The benefits of second-growth forests require…
