Accurate maps of AGB are required for monitoring, reporting, and modelling of forest resources and carbon stocks. Previous research has linked plot-level AGB with environmental and remotely sensed data using pixel-based approaches. However, few studies focused on investigating possible improvements via object-based image analysis (OBIA) including terrain related data to predict AGB in topographically variable and mountainous regions, such as Atlantic forest in Minas Gerais, Brazil. OBIA is expected to reduce known uncertainties related to the positional discrepancy between the image and field data and forest heterogeneity, while terrain derivatives are strong predictors in forest ecosystems driving forest biomass variability. In this research, we compare an object-based approach to a pixel-based method for modeling, mapping and quantifying AGB in the Rio Doce basin, within the Brazilian Atlantic Forest biome. We trained a random forest (RF) machine learning algorithm using environmental, terrain, and Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) remotely sensed imagery. We aimed to: (i) increase the precision of the AGB estimates; (ii) identify optimal variables that fit the best model, with the lowest root mean square error (RMSE, Mg/ha); (iii) produce an accurate map of the AGB for the study area, and subsequently (iv) describing the AGB spatial distribution as a function of the selected variables. The RF object-based model notably improved the AGB prediction by reducing the mean absolute error (MAE) from 28.64 to 20.95%, and RMSE from 33.43 to 20.08 Mg/ha, and increasing the R² (from 0.57 to 0.86) by using a combination of selected remote sensing, environmental, and terrain variables. Object-based modelling is a promising alternative to common pixel-based approaches to reduce AGB variability in topographically diverse and heterogeneous environments. Investigation of mapped outcomes revealed a decreasing AGB from west towards the east region of the Rio Doce Basin. Over the entire study area, we map a total of 195,799,533 Mg of AGB, ranging from 25.52 to 238 Mg/ha, following seasonal precipitation patterns and anthropogenic disturbance effects. This study provided reliable AGB estimates for the Rio Doce basin, one of the most important watercourses of the globally important Brazilian Atlantic Forest. In conclusion, we highlight that OBIA is a better solution to map forest AGB than the pixel-based traditional method, increasing the precision of AGB estimates in a heterogeneous and mountain tropical environment.

Wave mode (WV) is the default mode over open ocean for S-1 to monitor global ocean waves and wind field. Therefore, proper radiometric calibration is essential to accurately infer these geophysical quantities. Based on the global data set acquired by S-1A WV, assessment of normalized radar cross section (NRCS) is carried out through comparison with CMOD5.N predictions over open ocean. The calibration accuracy quantified by NRCS residuals between SAR measurements and CMOD5.N demonstrates distinct features for two incidence angles (23.8° and 36.8°). Particularly, NRCS at 23.8° is overall consistent with CMOD5.N, while NRCS at 36.8° displays great deviation. Two recalibration methods are then implemented by examining the backscattering profile over Amazon rain forest and ocean calibration. Both methods show the necessity for recalibration and obtain comparable correction factors for WV1 and WV2, respectively. The NRCS residuals by applying both methods are significantly reduced toward zero. By comparison, ocean calibration is more efficient and practical to implement.

This research was conducted in a tropical rain forest located near the city of Libreville (the capital of Gabon), in the Akanda Peninsula. The forest cover was stratified in terms of mature, secondary and mangrove forests using Landsat-ETM data. A field inventory was conducted to measure the required basic forest parameters and estimate the aboveground biomass (AGB) and carbon over the different forest classes. The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data were used in combination with ground-based GPS measurements to derive forest heights. Finally, the relationships between the estimated heights and AGB were established and validated. Highest biomass stocks were found in the mature stands (223 ± 37 MgC/ha), followed by the secondary forests (116 ± 17 MgC/ha) and finally the mangrove forests (36 ± 19 MgC/ha). Strong relationships were found between AGB and forest heights (R2 > 0.85).

Very-high resolution (VHR) spaceborne platforms have been hailed as a promising technology for mapping tree species over broad spatial extents. WorldView-3, the most advanced VHR sensor, provides spectral data in 16 bands covering the visible to near-infrared (VNIR, 400–1040 nm) and shortwave-infrared (SWIR, 1210–2365 nm) wavelength ranges. It also collects images at unprecedented levels of details using a panchromatic band with 0.3-m of spatial resolution. However, the potential of WorldView-3 at its full spectral and spatial resolution for tropical tree species classification remains unknown. In this study, we performed a comprehensive assessment of WorldView-3 images acquired in the dry and wet seasons for tree species discrimination in tropical semi-deciduous forests. Classification experiments were performed using VNIR individually and combined with SWIR channels. To take advantage of the sub-metric resolution of the panchromatic band for classification, we applied an individual tree crown (ITC)-based approach that employed pan-sharpened VNIR bands and gray level co-occurrence matrix texture features. We determined whether the combination of images from the two annual seasons improves the classification accuracy. Finally, we investigated which plant traits influenced species detection. The new SWIR sensing capabilities of WorldView-3 increased the average producer’s accuracy up to 7.8%, by enabling the detection of non-photosynthetic vegetation within ITCs. The combination of VNIR bands from the two annual seasons did not improve the classification results when compared to the results obtained using images from each season individually. The use of VNIR bands at their original 1.2-m spatial resolution yielded average producer’s accuracies of 43.1 ± 3.1% and 38.8 ± 3% in the wet and dry seasons, respectively. The ITC-based approach improved the accuracy to 70 ± 8% in the wet and 68.4 ± 7.4% in the dry season. Texture analysis of the panchromatic band enabled the detection of species-specific differences in crown structure, which improved species detection. The use of texture analysis, pan-sharpening, and ITC delineation is a potential approach to perform tree species classification in tropical forests with WorldView-3 satellite images.

Near real-time deforestation detection in Malaysia and Indonesia using change vector analysis with three sensors / Pauline Perbet in International Journal of Remote Sensing IJRS, vol 40 n°19 (February 2019)  

Public [article]  inInternational Journal of Remote Sensing IJRS > vol 40 n°19 (February 2019) . - pp 7439 - 7458 Titre : Near real-time deforestation detection in Malaysia and Indonesia using change vector analysis with three sensors Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Pauline Perbet, Auteur ; Michelle Fortin, Auteur ; Anouk Ville, Auteur ; Martin Béland, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 7439 - 7458 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes descripteurs IGN] analyse vectorielle [Termes descripteurs IGN] capteur spatial [Termes descripteurs IGN] déboisement [Termes descripteurs IGN] défrichement [Termes descripteurs IGN] détection de changement [Termes descripteurs IGN] forêt tropicale [Termes descripteurs IGN] image de drone [Termes descripteurs IGN] image Landsat-8 [Termes descripteurs IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes descripteurs IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes descripteurs IGN] Indonésie [Termes descripteurs IGN] Malaisie Résumé : (auteur) Malaysia and Indonesia have been affected by deforestation caused in great part by the proliferation of oil palm plantations. To survey this loss of forest, several studies have monitored these southeast Asian nations with satellite remote sensing alert systems. The methods used have shown potential for this approach, but they are limited by imagery with coarse spatial resolution, low revisit times, and cloud cover. The objective of this research is to improve near real-time operational deforestation detection by combining three sensors: Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8. We used Change Vector Analysis to detect changes between non-affected forest and images under analysis. The results were validated using 166 plots of undisturbed forest and confirmed deforestation events throughout Sabah Malaysian State, and from 70 points from drone pictures in Sumatra, Indonesia. Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 yielded sufficient results in terms of accuracy (less than 11% of commission and omission error). Sentinel-1 had lower accuracy (14% of commission error and 28% of omission error), probably resulting from geometric distortions and speckle noise. During the high cloud-cover season optical sensors took about twice the time to detect deforestation compared to Sentinel-1 which was not affected by cloud cover. By combining the three sensors, we detected deforestations about 8 days after forest clearing events. Deforestations were only detectable during approximately the first 100 days, before bare soils were often coved by legume crop. Our results indicate that near real-time deforestation detection can reveal most events, but the number of false detections could be improved using a multiple event detection process.
