While supervised classification methods have been shown to be highly accurate in mapping forest cover from remotely sensed images, their performance depends to a great extent on the labelled samples used to build the models. In addition to their high acquisition cost, such samples are often scarce and not fully representative of the variability in class distributions. Consequently, when classification models are applied to large areas with high intra-class variance, they generally yield poor accuracies because of data shift issues. In this paper, we propose the use of active learning to efficiently adapt a classifier trained on a source image to spatially distinct target images with minimal labelling effort and without sacrificing the classification performance. The adaptation consists in actively adding to the initial local model new relevant training samples from other areas in a cascade that iteratively improves the generalisation capabilities of the classifier leading to a global model tailored to these different areas. This active selection relies on uncertainty sampling to directly focus on the most informative pixels for which the algorithm is the least certain of their class labels. Experiments conducted on Sentinel-2 time series revealed their high capacity to identify poplar plantations at a local scale with an average F-score ranging from 89.5% to 99.3%. For large area adaptation, the results showed that when the same number of training samples was used, active learning outperformed random sampling by up to 5% of the overall accuracy and up to 12% of the class F-score. Additionally, and depending on the class considered, the random sampling model required up to 50% more samples to achieve the same performance of an active learning-based model. Moreover, the results demonstrate the suitability of the derived global model to accurately map poplar plantations among other tree species with overall accuracy values up to 14% higher than those obtained with local models. The proposed approach paves the way for a national scale mapping in an operational context.

This study set out to investigate these effects by assessing associations of climatic, edaphic and topographic variables with physiological drought stress in aspen. The study took place on the Zumwalt Prairie in northeastern Oregon, a semi-arid bunchgrass prairie where aspen occur in isolated stands associated with riparian areas and late-season persistence of snow drifts. Using a 33-year time series of Landsat imagery to detect associations of aspen stands late-season snow cover and field measurements of soil moisture in aspen stands during 2017, we found while snow dominated stands were associated with greater soil moisture during spring, levels had equilibrated to those of other upland stands by summer. Measurements of predawn and midday stem Ψ in multiple height classes of aspen ramets revealed associations of both shallow soil moisture and vapor pressure deficit with physiological drought stress in aspen. Analysis of soil texture class revealed an important association with midday stem Ψ, with finer textured soils associated with decreased stem Ψ in comparison to coarser textured soils. While neither topographical characteristics nor snow cover were found to be important drivers of drought stress, topographical curvature was found to have a strong influence on summer soil moisture in upland stands. These findings contribute to our understanding of aspen physiology, drought ecology and landscape hydrology toward the xeric margin of aspen’s range. This information can help land managers anticipate and adapt to changing climates and understand their effects on key plant species such as aspen.

Ground-based remote sensing of forests exploiting GNSS signals / Leila Guerriero in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 58 n° 10 (October 2020)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > vol 58 n° 10 (October 2020) . - pp 6844 - 6860 Titre : Ground-based remote sensing of forests exploiting GNSS signals Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Leila Guerriero, Auteur ; Francisco Martin, Auteur ; Antonio Mollfulleda, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 6844 - 6860 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes descripteurs IGN] atténuation du signal [Termes descripteurs IGN] bande L [Termes descripteurs IGN] bande P [Termes descripteurs IGN] biomasse aérienne [Termes descripteurs IGN] canopée [Termes descripteurs IGN] diamètre à hauteur de poitrine [Termes descripteurs IGN] Leaf Area Index [Termes descripteurs IGN] polarisation [Termes descripteurs IGN] populus (genre) [Termes descripteurs IGN] réseau neuronal artificiel [Termes descripteurs IGN] signal GNSS Résumé : (auteur) The estimation of aboveground biomass is commonly recognized for global relevance because of the vegetation role in the carbon cycle. Both active and passive microwave sensors can significantly contribute to this goal because of their high sensitivity to water content and high penetration at lower frequencies (L-/P-bands). In particular, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) are recently receiving increasing interest as source of opportunity to be employed as illuminator for L-band remote sensing, since they could provide low-cost sensors for nondestructive forest biomass estimation over large areas. In this article, we suggest a method to extract forest information using the GNSS direct signals collected in clear sky and below the vegetation canopy at both circular polarizations. An experimental campaign, carried out in the framework of an European Space Agency (ESA) project, was conducted over three poplar forests with different biomass to verify the feasibility of this technique. The relationships between the GNSS measurements and the tree parameters were first assessed and then interpreted and supported by statistical analysis and a theoretical model. The signal collected under the canopy is affected by attenuation and depolarization with respect to the one collected in open air, and this article demonstrated that both direct line-of-sight propagation and volume scattering play a role in the signal magnitude and its fluctuation in time. Although the experimental data set is limited in size and environmental conditions, two inversion algorithms were also tested with the encouraging retrieval results.

Growth parameters and resistance to Sphaerulina musiva-induced canker are more important than wood density for increasing genetic gain from selection of Populus spp. hybrids for northern climates / Marzena Niemczyk in Annals of Forest Science [en ligne], Vol 77 n° 2 (June 2020)

The most promising traits are associated with productivity and resistance to Sphaerulina musiva -induced canker while wood density can be selected for secondarily. A minimum age of 8 years is reliable to select fast-growing resistant clones in northern climates. Productivity, wood density, and disease resistance of hybrid poplar clones are important traits when selecting for cultivation at an industrial scale. We studied 1978 hybrid poplar clones from 63 families, bred from poplars native (Populus balsamifera and Populus deltoides) and non-native to Canada from the Aigeiros and Tacamahaca sections, to improve economically important traits for plantations in northern Alberta.

Here, a two-phase sampling strategy for large-scale assessment of the total area and the total wood volume of fast-growing forest tree crops within agricultural land is presented. The first phase is performed using tessellation stratified sampling on high-resolution remotely sensed imagery and is sufficient for estimating the total area of plantations by means of a Monte Carlo integration estimator. The second phase is performed using stratified sampling of the plantations selected in the first phase and is aimed at estimating total wood volume by means of an approximation of the first-phase Horvitz-Thompson estimator. Vegetation indices from Sentinel-2 are exploited as freely available auxiliary information in a linear regression estimator to improve the design-based precision of the estimator based on the sole sample data. Estimators of the totals and of the design-based variances of total estimators are presented. A simulation study is developed in order to check the design-based performance of the two alternative estimators under several artificial distributions supposed for poplar plantations (random, clustered, spatially trended). An application in Northern Italy is also reported. The regression estimator turns out to be invariably better than that based on the sole sample information. Possible integrations of the proposed sampling scheme with conventional national forest inventories adopting tessellation stratified sampling in the first phase are discussed.
