Landscape analysis of Old Natural Forest polygons identified from LiDAR data

The forest sector may contribute to climate change mitigation in several ways (Nabuurs et al., 2007a): by maintaining or increasing the 1) the forest area, 2) carbon

Habitat: Hilly, old growth dipterocarp forest with substantial undergrowth; riparian forest; recently logged and secondary forest; river island scrub; and plantation..

Small area estimation of forest attributes in the Norwegian National Forest Inventory using digital surface models as auxiliary

Percentage of 30 countries and percentage of their forest area considering each forest area classification (protected areas, protective forest, key habitats, other restricted

Reviewed studies have identified possibilities for the extraction of biophysical forest parameters from airborne and terrestrial SfM point clouds and derived 2D data

Straub and Koch (2011) used both air- borne ALS and multispectral variables to model forest stand age in a small study area (9.24 km 2 , 108 forest stands, 300 inventory

The small areas were 14 municipalities within the 2184 km 2 study area for which an estimate of the mean forest biomass was sought.. The municipalities were between 31 and 527 km

The study was conducted for a boreal forest area (approx. 1.4 Mha) in Norway where bi-temporal national forest inventory (NFI), Sentinel-2, and Landsat data were
