Texture metrics were derived based on different working window sizes (3 × 3, 5 × 5, 7 × 7 and 9 × 9), and the results were compared with those obtained, using raw traditional bands (Analysis set 1: 2, 3, 4, 8, 11 and 12), raw traditional and red edge bands (Analysis set 2: Set 1 + Band 5, 6, 7 and 8A), and red edge bands (Analysis set 3) only. Comparatively, the use of pooled data (texture and VIs) yielded higher biomass estimates. The results from pooled data based on the 7 × 7 window size resulted in models with better model fitting parameters. For instance, pooled data produced an R2 = 0.99 and a RMSE = 4.51 t ha−1 (relRMSE = 2.82). Further, the RF model selected dissimilarity, variance and mean from Band 2 and SAVI (Soil adjusted vegetation index) as the most important AGB predictor variables. The results demonstrated that like the red-edge bands, traditional bands were equally important in AGB estimation.

Improving aboveground biomass estimates by taking into account density variations between tree components / Antoine Billard in Annals of Forest Science [en ligne], vol 77 n° 4 (December 2020)  

Public [article]  inAnnals of Forest Science [en ligne] > vol 77 n° 4 (December 2020) . - n° 103 Titre : Improving aboveground biomass estimates by taking into account density variations between tree components Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Antoine Billard, Auteur ; Rodolphe Bauer, Auteur ; Frédéric Mothe, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : n° 103 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes descripteurs IGN] allométrie [Termes descripteurs IGN] base de données forestières [Termes descripteurs IGN] biomasse aérienne [Termes descripteurs IGN] bois de chauffage [Termes descripteurs IGN] branche (arbre) [Termes descripteurs IGN] diamètre à hauteur de poitrine [Termes descripteurs IGN] écorce [Termes descripteurs IGN] hauteur des arbres [Termes descripteurs IGN] résineux [Termes descripteurs IGN] tomographie radar [Termes descripteurs IGN] volume en bois [Vedettes matières IGN] Inventaire forestier Résumé : (auteur) Key message: Strong density differences were observed between stem wood at 1.30 m and other tree components (stem wood, stem bark, knots, branch stumps and branches). The difference, up to 40% depending on the component, should be taken into account when estimating the biomass available for industrial uses, mainly fuelwood and wood for chemistry. Context: Basic density is a major variable in the calculation of tree biomass. However, it is usually measured on stem wood only and at breast height. Aims: The objectives of this study were to compare basic density of stem wood at 1.30 m with other tree components and assess the impact of differences on biomass. Methods: Three softwood species were studied: Abies alba Mill., Picea abies (L.) H. Karst., Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco. X-Ray computed tomography was used to measure density. Results: Large differences were observed between components. Basic density of components was little influenced by tree size and stand density. Overall, bark, knot and branch biomasses were highly underestimated by using basic density measured at 1.30 m. Conclusion: Using available wood density databases mainly based on breast height measurements would lead to important biases (up to more than 40%) on biomass estimates for some tree components. Further work is necessary to complete available databases.

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)

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.

L-band SAR for estimating aboveground biomass of rubber plantation in Java Island, Indonesia / Bambang H Trisasongko in Geocarto international, vol 35 n° 12 ([01/09/2020])

We noted that date of acquisition is important, but certainly the selection of allometric equation serving as the reference data was paramount. Similarly, choosing a proper form of fully polarimetric data was instrumental, although this requires validation in different environmental settings. As expected, modern data mining approaches consistently delivered high accuracy. Extreme learning machine yielded the best estimate in terms of R2 (0.98) and RMSE (1.88 Mg/ha); nonetheless, it also delivered a slight negative estimation. In this case, we found that a variant of random forest produced an outcome without any negative estimation. This research suggests that estimated biomass or carbon information from rubber plantations would be an invaluable candidate for the improvement of global biomass data.

Carbon stocks, partitioning, and wood composition in short-rotation forestry system under reduced planting spacing / Felipe Schwerz in Annals of Forest Science [en ligne], vol 77 n° 3 (September 2020)  

Public [article]  inAnnals of Forest Science [en ligne] > vol 77 n° 3 (September 2020) Titre : Carbon stocks, partitioning, and wood composition in short-rotation forestry system under reduced planting spacing Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Felipe Schwerz, Auteur ; Durval D.

Context: Recent concerns about global warming have resulted in more concerted studies on quantifying carbon storage in forest systems. Forest energy plantations play an essential role in the carbon storage. Aims: We proposed to evaluate the carbon storage and partitioning in short-rotation forest plantations and to characterize the elemental composition and energetic properties of the forest species Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden, Mimosa scabrella Benth, and Ateleia glazioviana Baill, grown under four planting spacings in Southern Brazil. Methods: A field study was conducted in order to evaluate forest carbon stock and wood composition using samples collected by direct method. The four spacings evaluated were 2.0 × 1.0, 2.0 × 1.5, 3.0 × 1.0, and 3.0 × 1.5 m. Results: The Eucalyptus grandis stored 327.1 Mg C ha−1 at 2.0 × 1.5-m spacing. When compared with the 3.0 × 1.5-m spacing, we observed a reduction of 29% in carbon stored. All forest species showed higher carbon storage in the following partitioning pattern: trunk>roots>branches>leaves>litter. Forest species energetic properties and elemental composition were not affected by planting spacing. On the other hand, variations according the tree portions were observed. For the carbon stocks in the soil, we observed an average accumulated carbon stock for the forest species studied of 77.4 Mg C ha−1 (0–40 cm). Conclusion: Forest managers can accelerate growth and increase the forest carbon storage and biomass yield by using reduced planting spacing that are smaller than the current pattern used by the majority of the forest producers, which is 3.0 × 1.5 m. For Eucalyptus grandis and Mimosa scabrella, the planting spacings recommended to produce biomass and improve carbon stocks were 2.0 × 1.5 and 2.0 × 1.0 m, respectively.
